Good morning. About 64 and felt decent after the first few slower miles. I have been actually eating healthy for 3 weeks now and I can tell it makes me feel better. Don't get me wrong, I still enjoy a nice steak ;) . I just have been fruit heavy in the am, lots of fruit smoothies with Whey and fish/meat heavy in the afternoon/pm. It is a type of Paleo diet, not trying to lose weight, just trying to stay injury free and get some miles back under me.

Been a long time since I logged a 20. Since Boston actually. Wow it's hard to believe I have been trying to get back for so long. I have certainly lost some of  my edge that is for sure. All in all, good day to do it -58 at the start of the run, cannot ask for much more really. Glad its in and hope to repeat next week. One bright note is my last few miles were the fastest. Nothing to brag about but nice to know I did not have to drag myself across at the end. 2 deer and actually saw a groundhog attempt to climb a tree....

Getting ready to go to the Greene and go shopping with my soon to be 13 year old.
