Went out just before lunch and did river bottoms loop up the trail and around the golf course. Very nice day even with a bit of breeze. Did 8 strides along the way.

Went out just before lunch. Around 45 degrees with a bit of wind but lots of sunshine made it pretty dandy for a run.

Nice 6 miler mostly with Kimi in the mid-morning hours.

We just finished a big project at work and my boss sent all of us on the project an email telling us that beginning yesterday after lunch we were required to not show up at work until next Tuesday but still get paid. Unexpected 4 1/2 day weekends are nice. I like my boss.

Nice morning. A bitty nippy and windy starting out but near perfect after the sun came out. Ran about half the way with Kimi and Alan and the rest solo. Felt pretty good.
