3 TM miles during Noon at the Y. My legs are tired from Saturday. Not sure if it was the pavement, the late afternoon run, or both. Probably the latter. It was windy outside today and I wasn't feeling it, so did a TM run while watching The Flash, S3 E7 about Killer Frost. Nice little change in that series. My legs felt rough but not leaden, so I bumped it up and up and finished the last with 1/4 at 9.3, 1/4 at 10.1. That was some good turnover. 3 years ago I finished 16th in the Turkey Trot here in town, and I'd like to see if I can post another good time this year. We'll see.

Ran 5 miles in semi-cold and quite dark, then came home to lock our chickens in their pen (one wandered far yesterday, but made it home fine) and a porcupine was heading into their pen. Not on my watch! I dispatched it with a nearby 2x4, then bagged it up and put it in the garbage. Not going to allow my dogs to be too curious and get needles in their noses... that’s painful and expensive to remove.

7 miles in the foothills of Helena, MT. We were there for our last Fall soccer weekend and I got in a nice run. A bit chilly, very dark, and overally just really nice.
