Last Night's Run

Ian and I parked in an empty rail-trail parking lot last night as the fair weather exercisers were no where to be found. They must have been at home on their couches or walking at the mall. I knew the time would come where a full parking lot would turn into an empty parking lot but I didn't expect it to come this early. Then again, it was 39 degrees when we arrived at the rail-trail for our Monday evening run. It was cold and the first time this year that I had to run in layers, but it was good and as usual, I am thankful to have Ian along with me. Monday is fast day and I am trying to speed up. Yesterday's run was quick but not quite as fast as last Monday. I ran the 5 miles in 40:09 with a final mile in 7:26.
