AM - 3 miles with Finn outside - then 5 x 800 on the treadmill with a 400 rest.  Busy schedule the next few days, so I did this workout this morning instead of later in the day.  Legs feel a bit fatigued - would have liked to have had a few more reps in me, but decided that was good enough - did not want to push it too much.

AM - 3.25 miles with Finn on the golf course in the dark.  Seriously dark now that the sunrise isn't until after 7 am and we started the run at 5:30.  I let Finn off lead and at one point I did not know where he had gone as my headlamp basically is only good for a few yards in front of me.  But he knows the way - and knows where I am, it seems - all the time.
