Morning 10k to the p-town light and back.  Nice progressive run, but not big increases in speed- just slow & steady.  Lots of field fog, but I could still see the stars.  Kind of strange running with the fog all around me, but not really above me.  Made for an interesting dawn.

After work, I ran home for another 5 miles.  It was warm, I'd forgotten my ipod for music, and it was still just perfect.  I didn't run fast- kept a pretty constant speed the whole time.  After I got home, I could feel some soreness in around my ankle- I think it's just from running on the edge of the road on the silly slant.  I'm taking tomorrow off running, so I'm keeping fingers crossed it'll be perfect for Saturday.

On a unhappy note, a guy in MR's frisbee golf club was struck by a hit and run driver while running yesterday morning.  He's in ICU with traumatic brain injury.  Makes me so sad.  I thought of him every time I saw a car while I was running today.  Prayers for him are appreciated.

Oh wow. Crazy! I can't believe that...especially hit and run. Be safe out there. Makes me worried, you know how I get about worry :)

Glad you're doing well with the miles and loving the run home from work.

Good to see you back in the groove...and so strong.

Sorry about MR's friend...how awful. Prayer said!

Sorry about your friend. You please be careful on your early morning , dark runs near traffic.

Hope you had a good day off before Saturday.
