AM- 32º crisp. Yet a skunk was out. Somehow that does not make sense. 

PM- 40º 15+ deer at the park. For a minute I thought I might get run over. 

Easy runs today that felt easier than normal. I'll take it!

Cold and rainy run. 8 Miles w/11x 150m striders. My legs felt good and the vast majoity of the strides were much faster than 5k pace. A few down in the 4's if you were to look at pace. I don't expect much benefit from this run other than to keep sharp. Oh and more deer out!

10 days to the race. 1st long range forecast would be 42º at race start. Oh how I would love that.
