everyone was gone today so I went for a wandering around town.  Things were fine.  I developed a blister on my left pinkie toe which really kind of hurts.  That made the last 4 miles kind of a slog, but it really felt good to get out for a medium long run.  It has been a while.

Thought I'd be doing two easy runs today but my wife has to work late again.  So I went out to do the miles all at once.  No big deal really, just didn't ever feel too whippy.  Foot - no problems at all !  Lost 4  lbs of water weight---dang.

another day where I need to juggle things around a little bit - got out at 9:30 before a meeting.  foot feels really good again - yeah.  other than that, the runs have felt harder than they should this week.  Maybe that means next week will go well.

I didn't quite get my big butt out the door early this morning.  My wife had to work and didn't get home until 5:30 so I went then which worked out fine.  l just went slowly - slower than the rest of the week anyway.

11 @ 7:55 ish
