Boston -108 -- Fri. Jan. 1

Mass instead of a morning run, but after doing various chores did get out for an early afternoon run. Basically a Jabish Canal loop: started on GeoHannum, then railtrail and stretch at level crossing (back very sore!), then continue on trail all the way to the underpass, and right on to Jabish canal trail: beautiful half-iced stream, and not too deep in snow to run (although a bit slippery); out the other end, then up the road all the way to OldSpfld, feeling tired then; along to the high school entry, but pass that and choose rail trail instead, going under 202 and then onto Howard and out to Jackson, stopping the clock at the level crossing; jog home after that. Here's the data (from cell phone and mapmyrun again):

Time: 1:10:19
Distance: 9.68 miles
Pace: 7:16s

Comment: pace is good considering the conditions. I really must focus on miles now, so this week I'll look to round out with about 10 tomorrow to get over 25, then next week back up to forty again. Tomorrow, a new age group!
