glazed asphalt
i finally got out for a morning constitutional today. temps were right around 32 and a light mist was falling creating a shiny glaze on the roads. this only added to the snow melt/refreeze hazard that made for some very slow going in the wee hours of the morning.
regardless, i headed down comanche then up university and turned around after 3.5 miles. on my way back, a cat was outside a house and must have been spooked by my passing presence as it let out a wail that i heard even over my ipod. admittedly, i was more focused on dodging the oncoming vehicle than what a critter was thinking of me. in the end, i mustered 7 miles at a pedestrian 9:03 per mile pace and hit the shower.
