I had an errand to run this morning--drop off a check to my plumber's house--so I ran.  Ate croissants when I got home.

Run from 15/15 with a group of eight or so.  Special guest appearance from Connor Kamm, home from Williams College for the holidays. He continues to run well for Williams--in fact he just ran 8:50 indoors for the 3k.  He's a good kid and it was nice to catch up with him.

It felt good to run after snacking badly all day yesterday. Did I have a real meal at any point?  I guess the two croissants and two eggs in the morning counted as a meal.  After that, though, it was like a garbage truck had been backed up against my mouth to unload. I think there was some broccoli in there, but I'm not sure.  Overall though, we had a fun Christmas day with the baby as we made our rounds.

This morning I got out the door and ran into John Straley run commuting to work. It was great to see him. He's been injured since St. George and just getting back into it now. We ran together up through the avenues and chatted. I turned east and headed toward the hills.  I circumnavigated some tricky Federal Heights neighborhoods and snowfields finally to get over by the JCC.  From there, it was a snowy run over to Sunnyside and 900 So., back through the U to home.  Lots of snow and ice on the roads meant very little room to run next to the cars.

Radda run.  Cold! The house said 11 degrees, the car said 14. Anyway, it was cold.

Five miles this morning.  I woke up yesterday with a nasty fever and felt awful most of the day. Things improved through the day, but I still feel out of sorts.  Too much work and not enough rest has caught up with me, I think.  Perhaps I'll run again tonight if I feel ok, perhaps not.
