Ran up to the Turkey Day Race (5 miles), then ran that with Prague and his brother-in-law Mike. We were just going to go casual at 8:00s, but we got stuck too far back and started out 9:05, then 7:40 and decided to stretch it out a bit on the last mile in 6:45.

35 degrees, windy, raining, 7pm. I love running at night when the weather is crappy. I run faster and feel energized.

 9 miles progressive with miles 4-8 in 7:15, 7:15, 7:00, 7:00, 6:39. Total run time 1:07 (7:27s).
