Ran 3 miles on the TM and then joined my wife for a 5 mile run outdoors.  43 and sunny!  I am getting ready to soon pick up the mileage and begin getting outdoors.  First, need to get through another predicted snowstorm. 

Haven't bought new shoes since Labor Day.  Most of mine are getting into the mid-300's and 400's.  Just purchased two fresh pairs to come in on Friday.  That should help inspire!

Beautiful day!  High 40's, so headed out in shorts and long sleeves.  Sunny, no wind, and a lightly broken new pair of shoes.  Started out slowly (just under 8:15ish) for first two miles and progressively picked up the pace.  Ran miles 5-7 under a 7:30 pace.  Overall, did the first 7 miles in 54min (7:43 pace) and jogged the last 1.5 @ 9min pace- 8.5 miles total.
