Morning run as the fog lifted off the water, it was beautiful fall morning along the shoreline. Weather is supposed to stay nice this week so hopefully I'll get out a few more times, move past those really low mileage totals of the past month.

The YMCA loop, 8 minutes miles. That's about the effort I've been giving as a routine now, and I plan to stay there for another month or so. My hamstrings were tight this morning, I thought it was from running yesterday until I realized it was standing next to a campfire for 3 hours last night that did it.

Easy miles switching back through the Shore Drive-11th Ave neighborhood in Manette. I'm looking forward to daylight savings time. It doesn't get light here until 7:30 a.m. or later, and since we're right on the water the fog ranges from skim milk to gravy consistency early every morning. At least no one can see how slowly I'm moving these days.

Gray, cloudy day and perfect for a few easy morning miles. Warren-Manette Bridges loop. No problems, just relaxed throughout and enjoyed the quiet morning. I thought about the Olympic Trials. I talked to Paul this morning, he sounded pleased with the experience and his time. I'll let him blog about that though. When we were talking he got word that Ryan Shay had died at mile 5 of a heart attack, I'm sure that put a damper on things in NYC today.
