I met Kory and Barry at Centennial Park and we drove up to the top of the Just Cuz course.  It was in the low 50's at the top and felt great.  I ran the first 4.5 with them and then dialed it back just a bit to get in my groove.  I ran 13.17 miles and felt really strong the last 2 miles.

This was my first run in the new shoes I bought yesterday at Teton running.  Brooks Ravenna's.  I really liked them.
