I ran the Canal Trail with Bob today from Hamden to New Haven and back.  The first four and last four miles were snow and ice making the terrain more like trail running than anything else and thus pace slowed.  Although the 12.78 miles were done at AP of 9:34/mile in 2:02:19, likely the effort was more like 9:10/mile.  The middle splits (non snow/ice) were 8:49, 9:10, 9:04, 9:12 and 9:22. 

Anyway, different type of workout.  Clearly working different muscles.  Came close to falling four times.  Fell once – pitched self toward snow and landed left shoulder there.  Scraped right knee.  Good.  Got the fall out of the way and likely won’t be six months or so before that happens again.
