AM - just under 5.75 miles with Dan and our dogs around the golf course this morning.   Colder than expected - the outside temperature said 41 but there was frost on most of the golf course - which the dogs really seem to like.

AM - Happy Thanksgiving!   My immediate family did a neighborhood 5k together to keep our tradition on the holiday.  Normally we do a turkey trot race together- but happy we are all healthy and safe and can be together under the circumstances this year.

AM - "Race Report".  I ran 10k this morning for the virtual version of the Peachtree road race.  Originally scheduled for July 4 and then postponed to Thanksgiving Day - and then changed to a virtual event - I plotted out a route near my house and gave a decent effort.  Fairly hilly at times but mostly favorable overall.  Time was 41:27 for an average pace of 6:38 according to Strava.  1.75 miles warm up and a 1 mile cool down.

AM - 4.25 miles with Finn in a recovery effort from yesterday's run.   Felt very little soreness or fatigue but it may be delay in its onset.
