Original plan called for another 28 miler before tapering for the 50 miler in two weeks. But due to family obligations, I've dropped from the 50, so the impetus to push the longer distance on roads again just wasn't there. So decided I'd run at least 2 hours, then perhaps get the bike out later when it warms up.
Cloudy, mid 20's for the run, but felt really good, got right into a nice 10min/mi groove and kept it there. Diverted onto the Shenipsit Trail along the lake toward the end, since it appeared mostly snow free (and was...). And then for chuckles tossed in a faster kilometer from 21 to 22 just to jack the turnover and heart rate up for a bit.
Damn, another day shot to hell. Thought about sneaking out for a dark run, but temps dropping quickly & raining sapped motivation for that idea. Tomorrow not looking too good to make it up either. Oh well...

5 on the schedule today, 5 done. Stayed on soft dirt where possible, not terribly energetic, but not trying to stay under 120 either. Strong sunshine made upper 30's temp downright pleasant.
