Daybreak. Out the door a bit later than usual thanks to the Thanksgiving reprieve. Frozen Face. Awoke to 30 degrees Fahrenheit or -1 degrees Celsius depending on your particular point of view. A slight north breeze. Nothing over the top. Just a subtle reminder that it's winter in these parts and that winter and wind make for an uncomfortable combination. Long-sleeves, gloves, skull cap and shorts. The roads were deserted; even the perennial dog walkers were absent this morning. Finished the tried-and-true campus loop (4.91 miles) in a sub-sonic 48:19 and a 9:50 min/mile pace. Nirvana on the box. To the gym Friday; back on the trail Saturday morning. Mahalo.
