Lucky 13th anniversary today! We celebrated back on Saturday with a hike in Government Canyon and then dinner at my favorite place, the Boiler House - they make a mean cabrito.

| AM: 61F, 92%. 14 @ 7:48 AP. Running-wise, nothing interesting lately as I'm running fairly easy during this mileage increase, but I did have a protracted engagement with a skunk today. He was in front of me, running down the center of the paved trail, in the same direction I was going. Every time I'd get close, he'd stop and stare me down with his tail in the air, and I'd have to stop (you don't mess around with a skunk when you have work in an hour). This went on for a few minutes as he just refused to get off the trail. Little jerk... Finally he found a spot he liked and got off, but still stared me down as I tiptoed past.
PM: 71F. 4 @ 8:26 AP.

| AM: 68F, 92%. 7 @ 8:13 AP. First gnat in the eye this season. That usually doesn't happen until April...hmmm.
PM: 71F, 83%. 4 @ 7:57 AP. If the rain stays away (unlikely), then I'll do my first trail long run tomorrow. Otherwise...roads.

| AM: 58F, raining. 22 @ 7:14 AP. Rained all night and during this run, so the state park trails were out. I went to Leon Creek to run on a stretch that I knew wouldn't be too flooded, and did 2 x 11-mile out and backs. The first one was 7:31/mile and the second one was 6:57/mile, with a few @ MP and LHMP. I really enjoy a good, rainy run.
