It was 22 degrees with very light winds this morning.  I ran 7.15 miles with my trail loop again.  I did notice, however, some very large tracks from when the trail was wet a few days ago.  I am no expert on tracks, but they looked a lot like a big "cat" so I was a bit nervous running that 1.5 miles as the sun came up.  Prime time for hunting you know....
