40 degrees out and sunny.  Threw on a pair of shorts and a sweatshirt and ran 9 miles outside, 2.4 of them with my wife.  Kept is slow and enjoyable.

My wife's out of town, so it's challenging to get a run in while in care of a 3-year-old.  Went to the gym and by the time I was able to get a TM had 1 hour left of babysitting.  Ran 8 miles- 3@ 7:24 pace, 3@ 7:03 pace, and finished with 2@ 6:53 pace.  Hoping to get a long run in tomorrow if the weather permits.

Twenty miles outside- it was cold!  I ran 8 on my own, Ed joined me for 12, and then I conked out and had to walk the 21st mile.  Hopefully this will get easier as the base mileage increases.
