Felt great.  I started out on my 8 mile trail loop very slow and after 2 miles I just couldn't hold back.  I averaged 7:15 for the 8 miles including the first 2 slow miles so I probably did sub 7 for most of it.  Then it was too dark for more trails so I hit the road for another 5.  I tried to go slow but did around 7:30's.  It was low 70's which is probably what made me feel so good.

Easy run around nashville.  Found a good pair of sunglasses on the road.  Too bad I don't like wearing sunglasses.  Matt, if you are reading this, do you want them?  I don't see a brand, but they are reddish/maroon with good peripheral vision coverage.
