Staying on the roads for now
While I am drawn to the trails, I am staying on the roads for now. My back pain is back and a fall or two on the trails may have aggravated it. So, this afternoon I ran 4.3 miles on the park roads.

Late Saturday run
I went to my granddaughters high school wrestling match this morning and then attended a funeral this afternoon. I did not around to running until about 4:30 pm. Got in 4.1 miles in town. Another subject: They announced today that Jon Sutherland, 74, of Utah, who held position 1 on the international streak list ended his 55+ year streak. I cannot imagine a streak that long. I suppose it is a combination of self-discipline and good health. Congratulations, Jon. The next 5 on the streak list have at least 50-year streaks.

Cold park run
After running 6 races in 6 days, I went to the park this afternoon and ran 3.6 miles on the roads. Cold - 38 degrees, but nice and sunny. About the only vehicle to pass me while I was running was the Park Police Officer. Luckily, I did not get a speeding ticket.

Texas 10 Bridgeland 5-Miler and Sunday Night 5K
This was another 2-race day. I ran the Texas 10 Series Bridgeland 5-Miler in Cypress this morning. The temperature was in the 70's. I finished in 1:29:53 and was 3rd of 3 in the 70 and over age group. Then, I drove back to Huntsville, partly in a heavy rain. The second race for the day was the Sunday Night 5K in The Woodlands. I finished that in 53:12 in much cooler temperatures. It is dropping into the 20's tonight.

Early run
If you follow my blog at all, you know that I prefer to sleep in and run later in the day. I had to go to a funeral in Caldwell, Texas this afternoon, so I got up a little early and ran in town. Got in 3.6 miles.
