49F. 8 @ 7:30 AP. I was feeling pretty good so I did a little half-mile pickup to MP and my legs instantly felt heavy. Guess those particular muscles are still tired. More yogging in my near future...

1 with Elle in the neighborhood. Thinking we'll stick with 1 mile for a couple weeks, then go for 1.25!

AM: 51F, foggy. 6 @ 8:23 AP. New shoes! I get a pair of Type A's once a year but hadn't bought new trainer shoes in >2 years so I was due for some new ones. Decided on the FT 6 since my 5's lasted through ~1200 miles. Took awhile for them to go on sale but I finally found them for $47.99 so I bought a couple pair. All the other colors were $60+ but red was on sale for some reason.

PM: 71F. 4 @ 8:26 AP. Had time for a nice shirtless afternoon run on the trail under the blazing January sun.

PM2: 1 mile with Elle.

AM: 50F. 7 @ 8:24 AP. Had a weird stomach thing yesterday and didn't eat or drink much. So a weak/dehydrated run this morning but feeling better now. Better to get all these bugs out of the way now I guess.

PM: 63F. 4 @ 7:53, mostly on trail.
