Weather was warmer (39) and I felt pretty good. Maybe last week's funk is over. Kept up a good pace despite a few slick spots along the way.

Ran up Cloverdale to meet Neil at Overland. Still felt pretty good this morning. It was a bit cooler, around 30, but not bad. I kept a pace close to 8mpm on my way up, ran at a comfortable pace in the 8:20s while chatting up with Neil, then ran back in th 7:50s. Roads weren't slick. That was nice.

The temperature was only around freezing, but there was a breeze that made it feel pretty cold. Had a good run. Got under 8mpm by mile 3 and held it throughout. Expected some slick roads, but they weren't too bad.

Down into the low 20s this morning. Had a hard time keeping the pace at 8mpm. It was a pretty good run though. Went up Cloverdale to Edna to Maple Grove to McMillian and then through some neighborhoods.

Good run this morning. Only the first mile was above 8mpm and the last two were well under 7:45.

I wore my Ghost shoes this morning. Bad idea. I got a blister on the back of my left foot. Time to retire that pair, I think.

Pace: does it really matter?

I went down hard this morning. It was foggy and slick out. The roads weren't too bad, but the sidewalks were really slick. There was a stretch where I couldn't run on the road and I was literally five feet from the end of the sidewalk and I went flying. I somehow landed on my ankle and had to turn around and limp home.
I had run every day except Sundays so far this month (year). I think my streak will end on Monday.
