It was 41 degrees this morning.  When I picked up my Garmin to put it on it said "battery low" so I knew it wouldn't make it.  I ran approximately 8 miles on a standard loop.  I am hoping my Garmin isn't starting to fade.  It just doesn't seem to hold a charge like it used to.

It was 40 degrees this morning with a light breeze.  Hopefully the breeze turns in to strong wind and we can clear out some of this smoke!  I ran 15.15 nice, steady miles.
