Easy run.

6:15 am, 18° F, 79% humidity, wind 3 NE, freezing fog.

Thanks to my two faithful running friends, I've only had to run alone once this week. I ran with Lindsay on Monday and today, and I'll run with Michelle tomorrow. I was alone only on Wednesday.

I was supposed to meet Lindsay at our corner this morning, but I beat her there, so I headed towards her house and we met along the way.

My good wool top was clean this morning and so I didn't have to freeze my jelly roll like I did on Monday. I better wash it today in case I need it tomorrow.

My glasses got fogged up at one point and I couldn't see very well, but they cleared up after a couple of minutes.

AP: 10:13. Splits: 10:28, 10:15, 10:07, 0.27 @ 9:32. (That last faster bit was by myself after Lindsay and I parted ways.)

It's great to have running friends! I find that when I run with people, I'm much slower because of all the gabbing I do. But that's usually why I enjoy running with others!

You guys are chilly over there. We're getting a snowstorm tonight, supposedly. Nice running.

Nice work really getting back at it! Friends make running ALL worth it.

Great motivation, Carolyn! Bet you are looking forward to Spring (weather).
