Ran with Nate and Josh from Highland over to Jake's loop for a simulated/free 5k and then looped back through Millcreek for a total of 15.  The temperature gauge said 37 at the start so it took several miles to get warmed up. Splits were 5:08,5:14,5:17 for a total of ~16:10. I felt rather sluggish and I didn't want to push it too much but at least it is much improved over the 16:55 I ran last year at the Chasing Tail 5k on the same Saturday. It's too bad they cancelled that race this year. I am looking forward to the easy week ahead.

The neighbors must have been so confused seeing someone else running fast on the tempo loop.

At least you have a permanent aid station every 1.3 miles at your sister's house.
