I was not looking forward to today's run.  I didn't want to find out if my right shoe was still hurting my ankle.  I didn't want wet feet again.  My shoes hadn't dried out from yesterday.  But, I got myself out the door.

The second mile was all ice and puddles.  I slowed down when I couldn't see an obvious way around the massive puddles.  Most of the time I ended up running through snow to avoid the lakes on the sidewalk.  After that second mile, there were just puddles here and there.

Here are my splits.

Another 32:37!  However, after the tempo run, my shoe started to bother my ankle again.  I retied my shoe two times on my way home, but it didn't help.  Oh, well.  At least my feet were drier than yesterday.
