Ran home from work tonight.  Cool and overcast.  Sprinkled rain a couple of times.

Fairly non-descript night.  Noticed that some parts of the path were very dark, even running along high volume roads through the city.

Didn't have my Garmin on (too difficult to pick up sattelites in the downtown core) so I didn't have moment-to-moment information about my pace and average pace.  It seems like I did ok though, feathering my heartrate to stay inside my steady run target zone.

Time  1:07:08

Distance 10.18k (6.4 mi)

Pace 6:35/km (10:33/mi)
