I squeezed in a 5 mile jog during my mid-morning hours and then found myself feeling drowsy for the remainder of my day. Actually picked up the pace for 2 miles or so and felt good doing it.

I was hoping to get 5 more done this week but ran out of time. Didn't have my garmin with me so I am probably cutting myself a bit short but safe with 4.5 miles.
