I was up in Mount Vernon visiting friends, and dragged myself out of bed with an hour less sleep to run with Craig Romano, an outdoors writer and columnist for Northwest Runner magazine. Craig lives near the neighborhood where I grew up, so we got together at the Skagit Valley College trail, my favorite spot to run ever. Even though there was a light dusting of snow overnight, the sun had come up and everything was melting. So it was actually really pretty out, and warm enough for shorts. Craig had run a 1/2 the day before, so this was a recovery run. I was sapped from the 12 on Saturday also, and a short night of sleep. I ran a little less than a mile on my own, then together we did two laps of the SVC trail, which is about 1.5. Then we walked another lap as cool down. 35:25 total, which was in the ballpark of four miles.
