No time as Matthew and I had to immediately leave for his basketball practice.

Started run with a 7:30 mile - where I wanted to be. But, dropped off from there. A little disappointing time-wise, but a nice run for the day all things considered.
Course:	Run was an out and back, with a couple uphills early that meant finish with a couple downhills.
