4 brisk miles this morning. Temp was 30 at home, but 23 in town. I was a bit chilly, so after the first mile I sped up and finished with 1/2 mile below 6:30 pace. I think I can maintain that for 3.1. Will give it my best anyhow.

4 miles on the same flat route as yesterday. Much warmer, 45 degrees, but with a steady side wind it was still a bit chilly on the out. Weather's going to turn cold for a few days, with lows 12, 11, and 9, so it was nice to get outside for a morning run before it hits.

Boot Camp Wednesday. It was a good one. I think I'll a) be sore and b) sleep well tonight.

It's snowing and 13 degrees at 1:40 PM. Awesome.

4 TM miles. It was only supposed to get to 9 degrees last night, so I woke up with the intent to bundle up and go for a run. At 6 am it was -1 outside, so I scrapped that idea. Those 10 degrees tend to make a pretty big difference. Besides, it's only November 21st - not time yet for a sub-zero run. So, I ran on the home TM and it wasn't too bad. Listened to a couple of talks from general conference then watched SportsCenter. A nice morning. The home TM is definitely not the same as the nice ones at the Y, but it does the trick.

4 is the new 5. Or 6. Another 4 miles on the TM this morning. I really only have time for 3 miles most mornings, but I can't do just 3 so I go 4, but then I get to work a little after 8:30. Thankfully my boss isn't about what time you get in, it's putting in your 8 hours a day. That's nice.

Decent run today. Didn't feel fantastic, but it's the end of another long week. Last .25 at 6:22 pace.
