Middle B-hills loop this morning then extended around Little Valley at the end. It was a chilly 33 F this morning and for the first time of the season I put on some tights. Maybe a little over kill but early in the year I'm not use to the cold and have to take extra measures. Not a bad little outing and I wasn't cold at all. Legs felt pretty good too. 

Glad I got the boat all winterized and back in the storage unit. Now I need to get my little portable green house built over the top of the garden to save the tomato plants before frost kills them off. 

 

Went to running club and was greeted by no one- So this was a solo flight. I started out and thought I'd just do a few and call it because it was already 7 and dark out. Started out going up to the corner and back to see if anyone else was coming. Then headed south into Bloomington to do the regular club loop. It was a nice evening and basically perfect running weather. I felt good tonight too. The best post-STGM run I've had. Clicked a long for the first 6 miles under 7 min pace and then the last 4 miles most likely were under 6 min pace as I picked it up. I didn't have a watch but just felt smooth and fast. I'm grateful for runs like this every once in a while that make the other junk runs seem worth it. Finished and felt like I hadn't even ran.

Tights?... Come on Clyde! It was colder though, and I forgot my gloves - by the time I finished I couldn't take off my socks!

Someday I'll be able to join up on Club again... someday.
