Longish run and good start to the miliage week

I started out this morning not really knowing how far I would go. It ended up being a pretty long run of 8.5 miles. I kind of dragged through the whole thing, my speed was definitely no there. More than likely this was due to my diet yesterday and not getting sufficient water in me. At least that is my theory.

Today my new gloves arrived, going with white this round. Should help with visibility a bit. They are Defeet DuraGloves. They actually look better for biking than running, but I do want to have some sort of grippy surface on them and these do have that.
