8 Miles instead of 11

Fort Bend Fit met at Sugar Land Memorial Park. The full training group was set to do 11 miles. I started out with the Orange runners and ran intermittently for the first 1:20. It was cold and windy and dark. When I got close to my house,I took a detour to use the restroom and convinced Stan to drive me part of the way back. I cut off 1 mile, running the final mile back to the park. There was an optional 2 mile loop but I didn't do it. Since I hadn't done a long run last weekend and just started running instead of walking, I thought it would be best to ease back into things.
