3 days of no running -- we had some traveling that included 16 total hours of driving, tons of fast food, and it was all overlaid with a nice stomach virus.  Anyway, I'm 80% recovered but the body still wasn't too pleased I was trying to make it run.  So tomorrow will probably be another day off or maybe another easy 4.  Hopefully I can build up to a lighter version of the 10k workout I'd originally planned on Sunday.

40F, 7:16 AP.  Kept a brisk pace, and picked it up to 5k-ish pace for the last half mile.  Still planning on a 10k-lite workout tomorrow.

Things I saw on this run (in Longview this weekend): several hot air balloons in flight, a crime scene being investigated outside a strip club, and Santa Claus walking off some holiday calories.
