I slept through yesterday's run.  The alarm went off and I turned it off.  Laid there for a bit having it in the back of my mind that I needed to get up.  Finally got up and noticed that 15 minutes had past.  Pretty good, I wasn't that late.  I looked again and it 1 Hour and 15 minutes.  Crap.

So this morning I had 2 days rest and it showed.  I had a good quick run at 8:30 average pace.  Only 1 second off my year's best.  However, I did have my fastest mile split on mile five.  7:52.  Little by little it's coming back.

I also had the opportunity to clear out some spider webs on the JRP this morning, so that was nice.

YAY!!! You're getting back to your former speedy self! NICE of you to clear the spider webs. Is it still buggy down there?

If you don't count the spiders then there were no bugs, at least not at 5am. I ran north as well and there seems to be more bugs down by the lake. I'm not brave enough to run at dawn or dusk to see how many I can scrape off my teeth.
