Cold this morning. The thermometer read 40 when I left. Summer was nice, but I guess it's over now.

Not working today, so I slept in a bit and then did a ten-miler. Chilly this morning, but I dressed better for it than I did yesterday. I went up to Chinden and Maple Grove and back along McMillian. Kept a good pace. All miles were below 8 and my last mile was the fastest.

Ran up Cloverdale to Overland. That overpass is kind of scary in the dark. Met up with Neil and ran a few miles with him and then back home. Just running and chatting. Didn't push the pace at all.

Had a hard time getting motivated this moring. Once I was out there I was ok, but didn't really want to.

Strange thing. I've apparently been running with a penny in my shoe for two days. I saw it on Tuesday and thought, hmm I should take that out. Then on my last mile this morning I felt it rattling around in there. How I ran 15 miles or so over two days without noticing it is beyond me.

I planned on going slower today. I put on a podcast instead of music and took off. But I ended increasing the pace anyway a couple of miles into it. The weather was a few degrees warmer this morning, so I wore shorts. I had on two shirts, but was still a bit chilly up top.

I'd been running in the cold and dark of the mornings this week, so I was looking forward to going out a little later to enjoy the warmth of the sun. Just my luck it was cloudy and cold this morning. I even got rained on for a while.

I went down Edna to Maple Grove and down to Chinden. Up the hill to McMillian and back. I didn't run on the trails at Maple Grove because of the rain. Kept up a decent pace the whole way. Felt pretty good afterward.
