It was 50 degrees and windy when Barry picked me up this morning.  We drove to the top of Buckskin with Liza and Emily.  The wind was bad at times but luckily we finished in Inkom before the rain really started.  I ran 12.40 miles.

It was 32 degrees on the top of Buckskin this morning but it quickly warmed up.  It was a wonderful morning.  I started with Barry and Penny and then let them go as they were only going 12.  I finished with Elissa (sp?) and we cruised all the way to Century high school.  I ran 21.66 miles.
