My first attempt at starting a Sunday morning run group among my co-workers fell a little flat. Maybe it was last night's wind/rainstorm, but only one other person showed at Evergreen Park. And it was a wonderful, crisp sunny morning! Oh well, we'll try again next week. 

But mission accomplished as far as getting me out there (which is kind of secretly the actual goal, along with some team building). Ran Warren Ave Bridge, took a little detour on the Harrison trail, then came back Manette Bridge and a loop of downtown. 32:00

A week after running 5-on-5, we didn't even have one side of that game back. So 40 minutes of 2-on-2, which isn't quite as much running.

Just a few dawn patrol miles (probably short of 3) on a rainy morning. Pretty wet, but not too cold. Daylight savings will be nice, it's really dark this week. 21:00

Over in Redmond for Halloween at Eric and Alicia's house. Saturday morning I left with Alicia and ran over to Bridle Trails State Park. Foggy and damp, but no rain. She turned around soon after we got to the trails, and I headed west across the forest. Got to one end then found a power line trail and took that back. Picked up the pace some after leaving her, it's not a hilly trail network so I could clip along pretty well. Legs felt great. 46:00
