My body clock is a bit off, in a good way, from those days in Texas. So I was up early on a Sunday morning with nothing to do, and since the rain hadn't started (it has since) I headed out to stretch out my legs (I think I have the itch back, it feels good).

Went up Trenton so I could get a long hill and control a nice easy pace. Then I cut over to the Y, headed down the hill to 11th and home. Stuck with that easy pace, around 8/minute mile, which I needed after pushing a little yesterday. Really quiet out, I think I saw one car the whole time. Cloudy, cool fall morning, leaves everywhere make the whole city a mess right now. Also in a good way. 31:57

A few easy miles at the Y, on the treadmill. Started above 8/min, slowly worked down to 7:47. Another runner who's usually there at the same time as me does barefoot laps. He has an extra pair of Vibrams in my size, so I may give them a try later this week just to see what the fuss is all about.

First real cold morning of the year. We ran too fast, probably because Henry wore shorts. Geez, it was 35 out. We were at 7:05 or under (some as fast as 6:45) for eight miles, way too fast for a normal Saturday run.
