Got out around 6:15 as I had to take the dog for a quick walk. Started out kind of slow as I'm still not feeling that great. Gradually picked it up to finish at a decent pace.

Good noontime run. Laureen was gone, so I ended up going by myself. It was mostly sunny, but a breeze made it feel a bit chilly at times.  Pushed it harder than I have since giving blood and even ran up the hill to Cottonwood Drive for a little extra mileage. Feeling pretty good at this point without any significant injuries.

Made it out the door by 6:13. Temperature 25 degrees with no wind to speak of. Clear skies and a crescent moon low on the horizon in the south southwest. It was simply beautiful. 

 As I pushed it a little harder yesterday, I kind of took it easier today, at least starting out. Extended my run by running around the pond in Highland Glen Park. All of the ice has melted in the last week and the few ducks that stuck around all winter followed my every move in the hope that I would give them something to eat. The water was as smooth as glass.
