9:20AM start, 77F 55% humidity. The humidity was about 20-30 percentage point lower than what we had in the last few weeks. It felt so much better and I was able to be so much faster. There was light wind which was helpful as well. I averaged 7:51 on my usual route between the campuses and the loop on the east campus. This week is taper week before the 5K race on Saturday. I'm also watching TS Hanna and wonder if it will reach our region by then.
