Today Lori and I explored a park near our house that we had never known about.  It's a 1 mile trail that includes a historical site, which is a log cabin built in 1859.  We took the dogs with us and walked the length of the trail and back, which parallels a year round creek.  Later in the afternoon I did this run from our house to the park.  It's about 2.5 miles to the trailhead, and about a mile on the trail one way.  It was a very nice warm and sunny day for February and I felt pretty out of shape.  I've got to start running more.

Ha! Yeah, I didn't even run the 3M half Marathon last week (the first time I haven't run it if I was in Austin) because I didn't want my time to show how slow I've gotten. I'm quite pleased to see how much you've gotten into the groove. Good job man!
