Early eight -- Fri. Mar. 4

Meet Ken at 8 and off for the usual Rural loop route; feeling a bit stiff after last night, but okay once we warm up a bit (still cold, but much better than the night run). Steady pace, chatting, until we reach Hamilton, then I head left as Ken heads home. Take Allen to 9, then straight along until almost geoHannum, but go left to VFW, and home along 202, through DunkinD and that way-- pick up pace in last couple of miles, too.

Time: 1:07:02
Distance: 8.52 miles
Pace: 7:52s

Comment: this salvages a bit of weekly mileage, and even with the cold was not too bad.
