Got a little bit of a late start today so I decided to push the pace a little more than usual to get my 7 miles in before taking the kids to school at 6:40.  Didn't have much time to stretch before hand or after so I will spend some time this morning at work stretching.  Just took off and got going as best I could.  That first mile is always the toughest to get the breathing under control and find a semi-comfortable pace.  After 3 miles I had to stop in at the house for a bathroom break and then finished off the last 4 at a fairly decent pace well under 8:00/mile.  Weather was warm again today at 45 degrees and very little breeze.  I had to shed my top layer so I didn't overheat.  I was glad to shed a bit since it is nice to run without so much extra weight.

Time:  7:50/mile

PM:  Ran 2 miles with Cory in 20:02.
