Canal banks - 33:30

A little chilly out this evening, so I bundled up and just jogged as slowly as possible. The canals aren't easy in the dark at 9 p.m....

Bishop Kelly track - 31:44

Another 9 p.m. run. Wasn't too cold out, but I was in the mood for just some easy jogging. Overall pace right under 8:00/mile.

Run to Gold's and back + treadmill - 59:25

Easy warmup to Gold's Gym (now technically Axiom, but I'll still probably call it Gold's for a while), then a 30 minute progression run on the treadmill and an easy jog home. Progression miles of 6:56, 6:31, 6:17, 6:00 and 2:49 (half). Pretty good effort.

Run to the airport - 1:02

Late start to the run again (9:30 p.m.). Took a long route to get Mom and Dad's car at the airport. Felt pretty decent tonight.

Greenbelt - 39+

From the Glenwood Bridge upstream and back. Pushed Nica on the way out, then on the way back did some accelerations and ran back and forth to Emily and Nica. Saw 3 deer, including a big buck that was running down the trail and came within about 10 feet of us! Wild animals in the city...

A.M. - Run from the cabin - 20:03

Easy jog at 7:30 a.m. Cold and frosty out

P.M. - Middle Fork Rd. - 1:53

Great long run from the National Forest boundary. Hardly any cars out today - just a quiet, relaxing long run. Gained about 800' on the way out (7.75 miles) and averaged 7:43/mile, then came back a bit quicker with a few miles around 6:30. Overall pace was 7:19/mile. Not bad for a 15.5 miler on dirt with a couple miles of snow.
