Medium-long run. 4:50 am, 16°F, 50% humidity, wind 10 SSE. This felt like the run that would never end. I got an early start, before any of my family was awake, and by the time I got home, 3 of them had left for the day and a 4th left a few minutes after I got home. Besides that this was a long run, I had to stop periodically for traffic lights, a pit stop, and phone calls. I ran the County Line Road and MacArthur Ranch Road loops hooked together, so it was quite hilly, but what else is new. There was a good amount of melting yesterday, so the roads were mostly clear. The only significant stretch of snow and ice that I encountered was in the last mile on the green belt trail near my house. Tuesdays will continue to be long and hard for the next several weeks. I'm looking forward to a recovery day tomorrow.
I tried to think about the Running on Water cue from time to time, but my mind wandered quite a bit. AP: 9:03. Splits: 9:24, 9:13, 9:15, 9:22, 9:29, 9:01, 9:34, 8:44, 8:47, 8:30, 8:54, 8:56, 8:55, 8:37.
