I'm finally back...used Euchre on Wednesday as my excuse, then laid down with my eyes closed starting at 5 on Thursday.  That helped.  My eye wasn't so angry today.  Saw the dr., no infection.  Scratch is healing, though my eyes are both dry.

But getting out today felt good.  It was overcast and on the warm side.  Probably about 50 when I first started and dropped a bit throughout the run, though it did reach 60 today.

My garmin died at 4.25 miles, so I had to guess at the distance, but I was on a well worn path and I made sure that I did at least 7.  I doubt I went over by much, but I know I didn't go under.  It's nice sometimes to run without worrying about pace.  I think I kept pretty steady at about 9:15 pace or so.

I'm glad your eye is getting better and that it's not infected. It sounds like you had a good run without the Garmin for the last part.
