Another 6 easy miles. After San Diego we were greeted home with a nice 5 deg yesterday morning and -1 deg this morning. Ran later when it had warmed up a bit yesterday but this morning was plain cold.

Felt like I was coming down with something last night and today. Headache and low energy. I decided to skip my run.

I felt much better today. I went for 7 miles and just ran relaxed. It was a snowy morning and warm. 2 of my miles were in a couple of inches of fresh snow that hadn't been driven in yet. It was quiet and soft to run in. My pace dropped by about a minute per mile at the same effort in the snow to well over 9 min pace compared to the wet blacktop the rest of the run was on. Overall ave pace was 8:38.

I didn't get out until 11 PM. It was about 15 deg and crystal clear. Lots of stars. I ran the first mile in 8:12 and the second in 7:41. I was feeling pretty good so I picked it up to 6:54, 6:42 and 6:37 for the last 3. On the last 2 miles I felt like I was running around 10K pace but I wasn't even close to my 1/2 mar pace of 6:31 three weeks ago. I usually always run slower in the dark than it feels like.
