Mike and I moved our weekly meeting to early Sunday morning for five miles or so, maybe a little more. Met at Evergreen Rotary Park, crossed the Warren Ave bridge and looped Lions Park, then returned on the Manette Bridge and ran through downtown. Pretty good pace actually, we get chatting and lose sense of how much we're pushing, so my five estimate may be a little short. 39:32

Illahee State Park beach, which may have been the most peaceful place on earth this morning. Just silent there, no wind on the water, yellow leaves shuffling around, a few seagulls. I stopped and soaked it in, then hit the hill trails to climb out and get some uphill miles. 45:00

Morning run to Lions Park, back through Manette and Shore Drive. Medium pace, I was a little winded but I think that's due to a cold I'm holding off. Colder morning, but dry. Little sore spot on my left hamstring, which has been hanging around all week and isn't enough to stop anything, but I hope it loosens up and goes away soon. 46:50

Morning run with Mike, we were the only two Slugs on Beach Drive. Maybe everyone went to bed scared about the snow that was forecast, but other than a little ice on the windshield it was a really nice morning. Sun finally came up and I wasn't all that cold. We ran the first four miles at a good pace, between 7:05 and 7:20, then sped up and ran a few at sub-7. Wraps up a good week of consistent running, which is the goal for November as the winter gets started. A little tightness in my left hip. 56:45
