AM - quick 3.5 miles in between meetings - feeling slightly improved - but really  just wanted to get outside to get a run in.

AM - at a management off-site near Rome GA - place called Barnsley Gardens which is is a former pre-civil war southern plantation that has been converted in the 1990's to a golf resort.  Not much around - meetings were really early, so I ventured out with my headlamp around a very hilly/steep golf course cart path - very quiet, kinda spooky.  Still feeling poorly from a cold.

AM - 6 miles early again on the golf course at Barnsley Gardens.  Kinda funny / weird seeing critters with their beady eye's lit up by my headlamp - but not being able to quite see the size of the body behind the eyes - just hoping it is a deer and nothing more menacing.

Still struggling with this cold - and I was otherwise tied up with yard work.
