16 degrees when I began my run, with the wind chill bringing it down to 9 degrees. I'm SO ready for winter to be over. Regardless of the weather, really enjoyed my run. It was very quiet with just a couple cars on the road. It was nice to feel alone and seemingly have the roads to myself. I wanted to take it nice and easy this morning, with the pace somewhere around 6:40/mile. I started out going through town for a bit, around the college, then south on the hotel frontage road. After 7 miles I turned north and went around the Cedar Knoll until I reached Highway 56. I turned east, ran up the "cove" to tack on 1 more mile, then finished up right in my backyard. I'm going to title this route "Cedar Knoll" for future reference. I'm sure I'll be running it again, due to the lack of traffic and rolling hills.
Total Time: 1:38:19
Pace: 6:33
