7.25M early this morning before my wife left for work at 5:30.  Nice warmer day (36 degrees) with no wind.  Ended up staying home today to look after my daugther because she is sick and has pink-eye. (Stratos 2)

4.25M on a very nice and warm (48 degrees) after dropping my son off at tennis lessons.  Afterwards watched him at the lessons, he is doing pretty well he just needs to play more than once a week to improve.  (Stratos 1)

No run this morning as I woke up feeling crummy, most likely the cold my daughter has and passed on to me.  Maybe a bit of an issue from the flu shot I got yesterday.   A lunch run is possible, but most likely just let today be a rest day to get over the crud.
