8:40AM 70F 70%humidity. Went to my sons' school track. They completely renovated them and they are brand new and amazing. I did 5 miles total with 4 x 800m intervals in them. I did the 800m in 3:17, 3:17, 3:18, 3:22. So the last one was a tad slowr but not too bad.

0:39:06

I have the 5K on Saturday (if we're not going to hit by Hanna) and I will probably do a very short and easy run tomorrow and nothing on Friday.

I am impresses with your track workouts. They will surely help when you race your 5K.

Looks like a rainy forecast in our immediate future with 3 named storms out there.
