Nice run.  My legs didn't feel as fresh as last Monday so I didn't push it but I didn't slack either.  I put the pace at 8:20ish and kept it there, nice and steady.  It was a bit cold out, probably my coldest run this year, but not bad at all.  The worst part of a cold run is a cold face.  I took a mile or so for my face to warm up.  It took my hands about that long too with my thin glove.  After 4 miles my hands were too warm so I took my gloves off.  That didn't last long, the sun had set and the temperature dropped.  I had to stop and put them back on a couple miles later.  The temperature started at 27 and ended at 20!  Quite a drop for an hour.  But still, I wasn't cold and could add more layers for much colder temperatures.  The thermometer is always more intimidating than the actual temperature.

I hope that by not pushing it as hard this week that tomorrow's run will be a bit better than last Tuesday.

20 degrees with a cold wind? I would have stopped at the hidden hot springs!

Good idea. I'm going to run south next time.
