AM - went to get in to gym door, and discovered my keyfab had been de-activated.  A couple days before the actual expiration, but, the weather is so good, I am okay with running outside.  Bye-bye Anytime Fitness - 3 years is up (thanks for the $34/month raise, though!) 

4miles easy around a secluded 0.5 mile block close to work, with a hill near by (RR Bridge) - 35:40.

Lunch run outside again.  75 degrees and sunny (still really windy).  6 mile out and back to Seym. HS - 52:46

walks at work.  Feeling pretty sore still, and some serious fatigue (running outside after months on TM ?)
