Terribly enjoyable long run with a mix of roads and trails.  Last couple miles worked it down to marathon pace with no trouble.  Much better effort than the 18 last Sunday... 15 degrees cooler was a big part of that, I'm sure.

Very chilly (sub 40!!) run in the neighborhood this morning.  Slow first mile and then marathon pace.

Today, I officially have a 22-yr old daughter - sheeesh.  Celebrated with 7x7min at 1/2 marathon pace with 2 min jog rest interval and 10 min warmup/10 min cool down.  Barely 40 degrees again this morning, so took a bit to get rolling, but after the first 3 at 7:20ish pace, I finished up the last 4 right at 7 flat pace.  The loop I use is a hair over 1 mile, and I completed the loop on the last rep for a 6:50 pace... according to my handy dandy Forerunner 610.  Pretty good way to start the day.

OK, 31 is too cold for this Florida boy to be running outside.  I survived - barely!

Little shake-out run with some striders in prep for tomorrow's 6K trail race, the Tannenbaum Trail 6K.  It is run at the awesome Apalachee Regional Park "Cross Country Playground" home of the High School State XC Meet, NCAA DI South Region XC Meet, and future home of the DI National Champs!

Fun little race at the ARP this ridiculously steamy morning - 68 degrees and 100% humidity at 9am gun time.  Pretty good first mostly downhill mile (6:36), but then mostly at 7-7:15 pace not pressing too hard at all.  Lots of elf hats and reindeer hats etc - very fun.  Travis ran chatting with a buddy for the first half and then worked it a little bit to finish 4th overall just under 22 minutes... his 52-yr old high school coach beat him by 40 seconds  :)
