Cold is better, but my foot was playing up pretty good this morning on the way to campus. Likely won't be racing in the morning if it continues. I'll see how the run this afternoon goes.

North side - 7.3 miles, averaged 7:49. Slushy. Deep puddles. Foot was fine. I think the magic running ooze is testing me and keeping me humble. A few picks up race pace. .25 @ 6:02 and .29 at 6:01. A few shorter, unmeasured pickups earlier in the run.

Plan is to get it heck in the morning (and likely complain about my foot in my race report).

Hope the foot is ok! If you do run, good luck and give it some root-toot!

Seems fine. Time will tell, but unless my foot is the size of a watermelon in the morning I think I am going to go for it, especially since I know what the issue is and I can deal with it.
