I ran outside Saturday despite the wind. It was a pretty nice morning and I ran 6.5 miles in just under 60 minutes. The head wind sure takes it out of you but it is sure nice when it is pushing you along. I did have a little run in with a small pack of mutts. I got a good kick in on the most aggressive one and cam e away unscathed. I felt pretty good but had hoped to go more like 8 miles when I started but wasn't up to it that morning. I've decided to increase the frequency that I run if not necessarily the mileage.
