good Glen Ellyn after work 3.21 mi 00:31 09:39 pace
Put in a few miles after work. The part of the prairie path that isn't paved was just a sheet of ice so I had to go back and forth on my little .8mile stretch a few times.

alright Afterwork at Gym 00:45
Got in some time on the elliptical. Battling a bit of a cold this week. I just really hate my gym afterwork, way too crowded, but its a good way to wait out the traffic for my evening commute.

Yeah, good run! Once we got done with the icy bits and onto clearer paths north of Fullerton, the ice wasn't as big a problem.

great Glen Ellyn Loop 4 mi 00:39 09:37 pace
This run was awesome! Wanted to get it in before the first really snow tomorrow. Another negative split and I'm not sure I've ever run sub-10 min miles for longer than just a couple of miles.

good Quick run in Glen Ellyn 4 mi 00:41 10:11 pace
