AM - just 3 early miles on the treadmill in DC - had meetings on the Hill, actually that were going to tie up the entire day - and it was in the 30's too and dark.  Stayed indoors instead.

AM - 2 miles very slow and easy - on the golf course with Finn, just to give him some exercise.  I was out of town until last night, and he needed to stretch his legs, but I did not have much time before work.

PM - 6 miles on the treadmill at lunch - cold front came through during the morning and it was actually windy and significantly cooler than it was when I ran earlier.  Ran poorly, felt lousy, for most of the run anyway.
