Rain

Planned to get up early and incorporate the Jack St. Clair classic XC race at Belmont Plateau into my long run, but the pitter patter of rain changed my mind and I slept in. Rain stopped later and I put my shoes on, but it started up again before I got out the door. Figured I'd go anyway.

Got in 14 miles, the minimum distance I'll consider a "long" run. Nothing imaginative, just ran down to the Art Museum and did the Drives. 27:48 for the 4 miles up MLK; 27:35 for the 4 miles back down Kelly Dr. That's about marathon pace these days. Ran the total 14 in 1:46:43.
