Gary,
Congrats! Pulling a nature break and still going sub 3 is awesome. I was proud to recover from an untied shoelace in Portland, but you had to deal with much more complicated circumstances!
Well done.
I am completely envious of the weather you describe-I can't remember what a warm run feels like.
Take care,
JoeCrow
