23 degree morning run from the dog pound in Washington and up over Tonaquint Drive to home. Nice steady run without walking, stopped at the DC for a bathroom break but other than that things were good. 8:36 average pace. Love running in the cool temps!

Fun race this morning- bakers dozen in Hurricane consists of 4 laps and at each lap you must eat at least one goodie (cupcake, doughnut, cookies etc.) The first 1 1/2 miles are minor up grade a potion of it in the dirt, then back to the finish-start downhill. I went out just for a consistent run without pushing any speed. I hit 8:04 pace for the run and couldn't be more happy. Way off of a PR but that was not the purpose of the race. First of all I can count about 7 minutes at the 'sugar shack' then two sections of soggy running in the dirt. I ran each lap without my typical walking breaks. This makes 4 runs of over 9 miles that have been walk-free!

It feels good to actually feel like a runner. The plan is to keep this up and then as January/ february come along I will start working a little more speed into the training.
