January 1st, Wednesday

Even though I was bundled up pretty well today, the first mile seemed very cold. (My mind is already in St. Augustine.)  Eventually I  was loose and watm and begin running some pickups. I was very happy to have accomplished 4 miles in about 48 minutes with 12 speed segments along the way. The segments were alternating 100 and 200 meters, mostly under 8 minutes per mile pace.  I actually felt quite  exhilarated in  the end and only stopped out of an abundance of caution. Not a bad day….
