Sure enough after a mile or so, I decided to slow down to a nice leisurely pace. The plan of three miles meant even a leisurely pace was easy to accomplish in the amount of time I had, plus leave me time to shower. My wife feels that the shower IMMEDIATLY after running is very, veyr important. I did toss the occasional fast-pace in for random distances so that I had SOME sort of speed work in. Needless to say, I had expected my first mile to be speedy, with my other 2 miles to be much slower.
Mile 1: 8:03
Mile 2: 8:02
Mile 3: 8:07
Umm. WTF? The second mile was actually a second faster than the first one, and the third mile was comprable. So much for being speedy/slow. I'm not disappointed that I was around 8 minutes considering how tired/sore my legs were - but still. WTF? Still, the run was fun, I got it done in the time I had, and didn't put it off due to the sleet/rain/snow that was falling (all at once.)

After the Cookie Count and sorting (don't understimate the workout of lifting many boxes over and over..), we headed on home....
...and may have taste-tested some of the cookies...
