8 miles from home this morning before taking my son to early school. The PE teacher has a Fit Kids class T/Th at 7:15 for 4th-6th graders and the kids flock to it. It really screws up my running schedule though but it's all good so I make the effort to get him there.

My legs felt great this morning after taking a couple days off. I had a good pace on the up and even better on the down, of course. Wind was there but not horrible. Chilly with 29F and 20F wind chill, but I was sweating like crazy on the return.

6 miles from the Y at lunchtime. 47 degrees with a bit of an East breeze. I went out too quick which was kind of fun, but legs were a bit tired from yesterday. At one point I think I was in the high 6s cruising along but that didn't last too long. I then backed off quite a bit the rest of the run, mostly in mid 8s.

10 miles from home on the 10th. Nearly stayed in bed, nearly quit after 1 mile but didn't do either. Good run, worried about needing to run 24 tomorrow. That's a long way.

Another 20+ miler in some wind. Lots of fun. Surprised how much easier these 20+ ribs are becoming. Should have done 24 but meh. Route wasn't long enough and I wasn't going to run another foot into the wind.
