Today was a GORGEOUS, GORGEOUS day. It was WARM and SUNNY and a beautiful day to be out for a run. I headed out a little after 2:00, once it had warmed up close to the high for the day. And I wore SHORTS! (I also wore tall compression socks and long sleeves, which I had to roll up a bit because I was warm.) I saw a lot of cyclists; it was nice to see them out and about. I still had to run mostly on the streets since a lot of the flatter parts of the sidewalks were flooded. I even slipped on some ice (which I thought was slush) trying to go around a puddle. I went sideways into some snow and caught myself with one hand, so no big deal.

My splits got slower until the last mile; then I got a bit faster in the final mile. My shorts were making my thighs chafe so that was bothering me a lot in the middle of my run.
Mile 1: 10:18
Mile 2: 10:39
Mile 3: 11:08
Mile 4: 11:18

With a 0.52 mile walk at the end to cool down and enjoy the weather a bit more.
