6 unremarkable miles.  But a little bit faster at times.  Okay, okay.  The overall pace was like, 8:30.

on the treadmill.  I started watching biggest loser, but then my daughters got distracted from their chores, yelling ensued, and I switched to law and order.  58 minutes to go 7 miles.  That's a little bit better.

I did run for 5 miles on the treadmill after coaching a split of girls basketball games last night.  It's always more turnovers than points.  Both daughters played hard and well, so that made me happy.

Biggest loser; Alison Sweeny, come back

OUt and back to freedom hills, home backward on the BST.  The snow was pretty deep.  I had a good time.

Outside again, this time with Jack in the stroller.  He's getting too big, but still liked coming.  We ran to the dead deer at the side of the road and back.  It is fairly well preserved in the snowbank just east of the tennis courts at smoot park.  Probably cleaned up by now.

So Monday I skiied with my son, egro, no running.  Tuesday my legs were so trashed, I skipped.  Wednesday I fell asleep at 8 o'clock, and never got to it.  Thursday my back was wigging out, and I was reminded of another reason why running is an imperative for me:  it keeps my spine from flaring up.  So it looks like 4 days is the maximum allowable interval between runs for back reasons, along with 36 hours as the optimal interval for mental health.

five miles before going out to dinner at Porcupine Grill.  The company was great.  The food and service were lousy.  Strongly advise against.

More on the treadmill, a bit faster than normal.  I finished 7 miles in just under 1 hour.  After that, another hour of up and down basketball with the old guys.  Wait, I'm the old guy; 20 years older than some of those punks.

Despite being 7 miles in, I outran all of the non-junior college players.
