4.3 miles @ 9:30/mi  pace. Murdock Canal trail North - some with Paul. Weather was warm and trail was icy. Garmin results below don't have all the distance because it was not on for the first half mile when I was actuall running faster to catch up with Paul.

Strength Training 

Half an hour arms and back training - hard shoveling icy walkway to Canal trail.

4.530.000.000.000.004.53

4.5 miles @ 9:09/mi pace. North on Murdock Canal trail with Paul. It was super cold and was just good to get out. I think the pace was a bit fast for Paul as he was not talking as much on the way back. Then again, it could have merely been the cold that stifled conversation. 12 degrees and it felt even colder.

Paul may have pulled something around his knee. Hope not but he ended our run walking home from my house. Hope he's alright.
