Rolling tour of neighborhood roads and trails - mostly easy, but marathon pace on a few of the flat/downhill sections - overall average 8:21 pace.  Gonna take it easy until turkey trot and see what I can run for the 15K.

Just a few easy miles this evening in the light rain.  Was heavy rain this morning so missed the run, and then only had time for a few before dinner with the fam - kids rolled in for Holidays and my folks are due in tomorrow.

Goal pace was 7 flat to 7:10, so 7:13 will work pretty good.  Made it through five a bit under 7 pace and then all the 10K runners (the ones I was running with) peeled off and the 15K turned up a hill into the freezing wind - bad combo... 6th and 7th miles blew up to 7:25, but I worked the finishing couple miles a little better to finish fairly strong.  Lisa, Cynda and my folks all walked the mile, and Travis jogged the 5K with a couple buddies on a very chilly morning.  Now we nap while the turkey cooks.  Happy Thanksgiving!
