Day off from work so I stayed over in Seattle and ran on the Burke-Gilman Trail. The fog was still dense when I went out, which was too bad because it turned into a really sunny day an hour later. But five miles on the loop I do around Husky Stadium and a little nature preserve, no watch because I forgot it.

Five at the Y on the treadmill, it's like fog soup outside today. But a good run inside, had the room to myself, plenty of NBA highlights to keep me entertained, my body felt loose and relaxed and my legs felt fresh and springy. Ran at 7:45 pace, 39:00.

Back on the treadmill at the Y for an early morning run. The usual pace I've been running lately, felt fine. 39:50.

Early morning Slug Club run, first pre-dawn meeting down there in awhile for me. Chilly out, but not too bad and it was dry and it was light for the return on Beach Drive. Met Mike with ten easy miles in mind. We started slowly, then hit our target pace for the most part, between 7:10 and 7:25. Maybe one or two closer to 7/min., which felt like we pushing a bit. My legs felt good for the most part and fitness was there, even if those 7/min. miles felt a bit labored. I can tell I'm still getting in shape at that distance. That'll come, we'll probably do ten again next weekend before increasing the mileage on long runs. 1:14
