It was almost warm this morning. 50 degrees. Just shorts, two shirts, no hat or gloves. Tried to keep the pace up. Was able to progress each mile. Didn't get lost. A good day.

My Garmin gave me the battery low sign at about mile 3, but held on for the whole run, so that was nice too.

Even colder today. 32 and still windy. It's going to be a long winter.

Another chilly morning. The run was uneventful except for a big dog that barked at me while running along Ustick. I've gotten used to being barked at through fences. No problem, right? Except this time the dog jumped the fence and came after me. I peed a little, but he ended up being harmless, just wanted to play.

Pace: 7:51

A great run. Weather was perfect, around 60. I felt good starting out. Usually my first mile is around 9 minutes, but about a quarter mile into it I looked down and was at 7:55. So I kept up the pace the whole way. I haven't had a run that wasn't a race where every mile was under 8 in a long time. Felt great.

Running hard yesterday afternoon took more out of me than I thought. After about a mile my legs felt like mush. So, I cut down Fairview and called it good. I forgot to turn on my Garmin for about a mile or so, but I know the route well enough to call it five miles.
