12/4 Run

Had planned to run on Thursday. Worked from home, having one of those days where you check your work email from the home office in the morning and then can't make it out the door for all the fires. We got home from picking up Kaitlyn and had dinner, and then I almost fell asleep on the couch. I haven't almost fallen asleep on the couch in months. I figured that was a pretty good reason to defer the run, especially given that I'm only 5 days out from the marathon.

12/4 was Friday, and I actually made it to work and ran there. :) A fairly easy run from work to SPU and back. Started the clock from work since the temps were coming down (38 feels like 32), and a warmup walk just wasn't going to happen

Wore my light jacket over and LS shirt with tights and it was tied around my waist after 1.5 or so. It's going to take a few runs to figure out this cool weather clothing thing.

Finally wore my new Books Addictions. Nice. They're like little Brooks Beasts, only in 85% scale. More forefoot cushioning than the Mizunos and slightly narrower, which is good. Good tongue and upper cushioning too. I likey. :)
