Runners: Carolyn, Sandy and Jim. And Russ going the other way.

Weather: Upper 30's and Snow/Rain Mix

Comments: We ran completely off trail . Is everyone happy now? Nice surprise to see Russ coming the other direction. I don't know about Russ but we stuck to 2 minutes per mile slower than race pace. Good job everyone. Question: is it a reward or punishment to be greeted by a large gathering of men dressed up as Smurfs at the end of a run?

The next run will be from the Hawthorne Bridge at 7:30 AM tomorrow morning.

Runners: Carolyn, Russ and Jim

Weather: Low 40's and Cloudy

Comments: Russ is The Man and Carolyn can keep up with The Man. I wanted to stick it to The Man. Good job Russ.

Our next run will be from the Hawthorne Bridge at 7:30 AM tomorrow morning.

Runners: Carolyn, Sandy and Jim

Weather: Mid 40's and cloudy

Comments: We ran out 53rd (saw a man and his goat) to a new entrance that puts us farther out on the Wildwood. A new feature of our run is to stop and take pictures (thank you Sandy.) Maybe we could start making videos too. Wait last time we did that I ended up with a scare on my face. Good job everyone and see you next week Russ. I'm sure you ran fast at the beach.

Our next run will be from Burnside tomorrow morning at 7:30 AM.

Runners: Carolyn, Russ and Jim

Weather: Low 40's and Sunny

Comments: Good climb up Marquam Trail even without the Loud Ladies. Nobody on the trails this morning but lots of people coming up Terwilliger. And one poor lady going down Terwilliger that passed us with just enough speed to make us think "I can go that fast." Or faster. Update: I looked at the splits and we did mile 7 in 7:53.

Our next run will be from the Hawthorne Bridge tomorrow morning at 7:30 AM.
