Pre-Dawn Five

Was out the door at 4:24am and am very glad I went. Cold rain is expected to move in later today and we also have an afternoon staff meeting planned. Those always manage to turn my brain into green jello. But today's run is already in the books, so no worries at all. 

Felt very creaky at first, due to the past handful of days and also running so early, but loosened up as the run went on. Very easy/recovery pace. Bring on the espresso. 

Ran 5.5 miles @ 8:48/mile pace. 

Paved roads. 

Mostly flat. 

Upper 30s, overcast. 

Saucony Virrata, long tights, windbreaker, short sleeved shirt, beanie, gloves, reflective vest, headlamp.
