Thu 12/6 - PM 75 minutes, Longfellow loop

Took the full tour of McMansionville for the first time which was a hoot. Also hit the Loker-Ruddock extension. Left hip felt like garbage all day at work, I knew the first few minutes of the run would be a chore and they were. Thankfully it loosened up somewhat after that although never pain-free. Hopefully it will remain manageable from here on out. I was able to do strides at the end which was more than could be said yesterday. Moving fairly well at times, the mantra helped. Many of the roads were in worse shape than I had expected. Continued colder than normal temps, three days now of 24/7 below freezing. Given this I should have expected the icy patches on the side streets.
