PM: 13.7 miles, averaged 8:02

1:50 easy with the last 20' somewhat moderate (about 7:20-7:30 pace).

Ran on the roads rather than the park (for most of it anyway). I was hoping to pick up some of the trails to go to Dodge Park (where I ran with Jeff Shadley not long after I got here) but the paths were flooded. I turned around and thought I would go the other way as originally planned but figured that would be flood as well, so I ran back the way I came and finished up at the park before headed home. My legs and body are not used to running on concrete. Cold and damp with some snow showers just before I left.

Another solid Sunday run. I can see some momentum building here. Your Sunday runs are really good.

Thanks. A different approach than is typical but I'm doing some rebuilding and reprogramming.

Have a good Thanksgiving, Tom.
