Cool and slightly breezy, right at 50 degrees. Just warm enough for sleeveless shirt and shorts after warming up inside first. Went to the Y, did bike warm up, core and stretching then hopped on the treadmill for 4.22 miles at about an 8:15 pace. Then headed outside for another 4.05 miles at 7:34 pace average. Run felt good with the cool but not cold weather. Quick cool down on the elliptical and then some leg extensions and lat pull downs. About a mile into the outside portion of my run, I was entering into a neighborhood, on either side of the road at one point are ponds and swampy areas. I saw a river otter run across the road to get to the other pond, I continued running and his friend started to cross, I had gotten closer and I think we almost crashed into each other. The second on kind of looked at me and showed its teeth at me, not quite as friendly looking as I normally see them when in the zoo and behind glass! But still, pretty amazing.
