6 easy miles.  It was pretty windy.

I damaged my eye, I think it is a scratch, but yesterday I couldn't stand being in the light and didn't trust my eye to go out in the dark.  So I gazelled and watched another Illini loss.

Got to get to the eye dr. today.  This eye is killing me.

I'm finally back...used Euchre on Wednesday as my excuse, then laid down with my eyes closed starting at 5 on Thursday.  That helped.  My eye wasn't so angry today.  Saw the dr., no infection.  Scratch is healing, though my eyes are both dry.

But getting out today felt good.  It was overcast and on the warm side.  Probably about 50 when I first started and dropped a bit throughout the run, though it did reach 60 today.

My garmin died at 4.25 miles, so I had to guess at the distance, but I was on a well worn path and I made sure that I did at least 7.  I doubt I went over by much, but I know I didn't go under.  It's nice sometimes to run without worrying about pace.  I think I kept pretty steady at about 9:15 pace or so.

This run was hard, not just for the length, but for the wind.  It was intense.  But now I'm on the way to getting some endurance again :)
