4.5 miles @ 9:26/mi.  Murdock/Lindon loop with Wayne.

Good conversation. Sunshine. Nice run for a couple of old guys on a cold December morning.

4.5 miles @ 9:07/mi  Murdock trail north solo (some with Rich L. & company)

My pace went 10:22 (warmup, uphill), 9:33 (alone in the dark & cold), 8:28 (trying to catch Rich & company), 8:57 (with Rich), 7:39 (down 1600 N).

They again invited me to run with them M,W,Th at 5:15am. That seems so early, especially in winter. I don't think I'm ready for that at present.
