Notes

This run followed an unwanted taper week, since weather and early darkness and work kept impinging on my running. It may not be such a bad thing anyway, because I had irritated those extensor tendons in my previous run. It was a lovely afternoon for the run. I wore light long pants and light long sleeves, which were perfect. I felt a bit stiff, especially in the first mile or two. It got easier as I went, even at mile 6.5, decision time for ending it at home or doing the second loop. The decision was easy, as I ran past. The last three miles weren't particularly difficult, and I could have done more. Considering several traffic stops, pace is good. With snow on the way, keeping in shape is going to be a challenge.

Post-run: Knees are a bit gimpy, but should be fine by morning.
