| I ran Eagles View with Tom at noon. He's sure running well. He had already run a bunch of miles before we joined up , and it was an easy day for him, but even so I'm pretty sure I was slowing him down. I think we only averaged around 8:40/mi. I'm still reluctant to push very hard.
The PF doesn't seem to be getting any better or worse. I tried some firmer arch supports on today's run and they felt good. I'm getting kind of discouraged (bored) not being able to boost my mileage or my speed, but I think I'll continue the reduced training through the holidays and see what the new year brings.

| Ran the Serpentine loop solo. I averaged around 8:40/mi instead of 9:40/mi this morning. I stepped on a pine cone about 4.75 miles into the run and rolled my ankle pretty good. I ran it off and managed to average about the same pace for the remainder of the run. | | Add Comment |

| Ran Eagles View with Will. We averaged about 7:47/mi. Will and I always seem to subconsciously push each other. I was planning on 8:00+, but Will claimed I was the one pushing the pace. It doesn't really matter. The weather was a little warmer today and it was a very enjoyable run. I was a bit surprised not to see Tom today. | | Add Comment |

| Larry and I ran towards the canyon to the golf course this morning. It was good to get out with Larry again after over a week. | | Comments(2) |

| I was planning to run at work today, but then I was planning to go into work today, too, and that didn't happen either. As I went to leave for work I discovered our old 1992 suburban (the only one of our four vehicles I'm normally allowed to drive) was dead in the water...or at least dead in the driveway. It turned over great, and had a full tank of gas, but no spark. I decided to take the morning and try to fix it, but after trying everything I could think of I finally had to give up. I gave up about the same time it started getting really cold. During this adventure I also discovered that I wasn't feeling very well...and not just because of the dreaded car repair expense. I ended up not going into work at all...and not running either.

| I'm blogging this 4 days late, but I couldn't not record that Larry and I actually ran with Kevin today. It was the first time for me in almost a year. Kevin had to get back early so we didn't even make our 6 mile goal, but that was probably good. It was very cold, about 17' I think, with a cold headwind as we ran towards the canyon, and I was feeling a little under the weather.
