I ran outside in the empty streets behind the high school. I wore shorts, but kinda regretted it because it was so ridiculously windy. I almost turned back after the first half mile it was so windy, but then I decided to just run a bunch of times around the retention ponds back there to add up to 5 miles. There were 2 cars that were circling the loop of streets there (it's about a 2 mile loop), which was really weird. One car would race around, and when it came back the other would go. Both cars were white and I'm pretty sure there were 2, but it is possible there was only one. There was also a pickup truck that was sitting at the start/stop spot for the race. At any rate, I altered my route so that I didn't run past the staging area. I thought about calling the police when I got back to school, but when I got back to school I forgot all about it. My pace was fast because of the wind. AP was about 8:30. I accidentally screwed up the autolap feature early in the run and forgot to hit the lap once I got to mile 1, so the only splits I know for sure were 8:25, 8:24, 8:08 for the last 3 miles.
