Earlier in the day, it was sunny and almost 40. By the time I got out it was cloudy, but not too cold, maybe just above 30 or so. Still good. I avoided sidewalks since any residual snow was slushy and just ran streets and the bike path.

8 has been my go to longer distance each week. The only time I did more was when I ran the trail race, and I only did 9 that day. I have to start thinking about a training plan for my annual half marathon. It's not till April 26th, but I bet that'll be here before I know it. I have no solid goal, except to PR.

Did somebody say Solid Gold? I love that show!

I had to check my entry before I understood this.

No, she said Soul Glo.

Plenty o' time to train for a big PR; you've been on a roll lately.

A PR is a solid goal! Maybe a 1:41?? :)

I'm not real thrilled about finding/creating/following a training plan, but I think I probably should get on it. Thanks, Joe, for the encouragement. I've been trying! Matt, I am thinking 1:40:xx for a target. I think that's a pretty realistic goal if conditions are right!
