Easy 7 in the morning: raining at the end and 50 degrees.  About an hour of running loops around the neighborhood, rocking the arm sleeves, headband, etc.   So - Kipchoge lost?? 

We got cable TV back just in time to watch a whole lot of football :)

Mileage volume has been pretty pathetic.  Running hard in track workouts, but, not really getting the base volume to back it up.
