Nice leisurely Sat run with the group(Angelica, Maria, John and Andy) on the Bullfrog Lake trail, AKA Loosey Goosey trail. The trail John nicknamed Loosey Goosey because of all of the rocks, roots, ruts, turns, ups and downs. Each one of us have fallen at least once on this trail. Today it was Angelica's turn.

Lisle 5mi Loop x2
Ran:    10.30 miles
Time:  1:29:60 (hh:mm:ss)
Pace:  8:44 minutes/mile 
Temperature:  55°

Solo, 5 mile loop(times 2) around work at lunch time. With the changing of the clocks, it is too dark to run 10mi after work, so I decided to take a long lunch to run 10 and work 2 hours later. It was a decent loop but I think I will experiment with some trails that close by. My goal to to run @35 miles a week. I am figuring 10mi on Mon or Tues, 5mi on Wed, 10mi on Thurs and 10 on Sat with the group. I figure I can run the 10mi on Mon or Tues during lunch at work and run the 10mi at Country Lane immediately after work since I work from home on Thurs.
