Today when I ran it was 30 deg and sunny. I think this is the first time in the last couple of weeks that we've got out of the lower 20s. Almost felt like T-shirt weather. Ran 6 miles about half on snow and half on pavement. Pavement miles around 8:15 and about 30 seconds slower on the snow. 8:26 pace overall.

Ran a very easy 5 miles. My heart rate is so much higher on these runs than it was when I was in shape. I ran 9:09 pace and my ave heart rate was 143. When I was fit my pace was around 8 min or even high 7s at that HR. It was usually below 130 running over 9 min. Hope to start improving quickly.
