34th Street Loop/Orange Street Loop

I walked the 34th Street Loop through fluffy snowfall this morning in 45:25. This evening I had the best run I've had in, I don't know, a year and a half or more. Heck, it was my first non-stop run since November. I ran the Orange Street Loop through heavy, 35° mist in 28:54, with splits of 9:58, 9:49, and 9:08. It's hard to explain. Maybe it was the chef salad I ate for lunch at Sheba's Family Restaurant in Hope.
