Six in the brrrr early morning (15 degrees with wind chill of 2) and a humongous moon.

Just before noon did some mile repeats with the first 2 being very downhill and the last 2 just a bit downhill but essentially flat with the dang headwind that made me very tired by the end!

Mile splits were 5:47, 5:47, 6:29, 6:39. Jog/walk rests of 4-5 minutes in between.

Nice & easy 6 miler with Kim on a sunny (but still dang cold!) day around 10am.

Had a dandy 18-miler in the morning with the gang. For the last 12 miles it was mainly Kim and I, Doug, and Alan.
