Came upon a skunk, which thankfully kept its glands in check. Dark, cold, and very windy. The swans look like statues out in the lake with the spotlight on them in the dark.

PM/Evening: 12 miles.

Saw a numerous deer in the park. More than I have seen previously. Thankfully no skunks this time.

Probably not going to run a tukey trot again this year. I was thinking I was going to be in Maine but my work schedule squashed that. Then I thought Ann Arbor but I don't want Megan to have to get up early. I cannot find anything around here that looks worth my time. Might just do a 5k time trial at the park to see what happens.

PM: 12 miles steady moderate with progression to theshold, averaged 6:37.

Did 10 miles from 7:05-6:00, then "the fence mile" exiting the park around 7:00 and then another mile at 6:36, which felt, if not easy easy, then at least fairly easy.

No turkey trot, no time trial. Thinking ahead to spring and how I can get in a buildup for a marathon or attempt a substantial half PR. I feel with work committments I won't be able to double like I usually do and I am sure I could run well off lower mileage but I am really not interested in testing that theory.
