6:45AM 65F 80% humidity. Went to a run on the Hudson river in NYC. Went all the way down from 84th west to 14th, turned around went back up to 95th and down to 83, around the vblock and back to 84. Over all it was a very nice run. Lots of interesting things on the way. It was a little bit shorter in length than what I hoped to do but a 9.1 miles run when on vacation is not bad at all. I hope to get another short one tomorrow. Probably to central park.

6:50 AM about 65F, I ran in central park. I had a plan for some route but I ended up going a different one. It was a nice run. I later on approximated the length of it so it's pretty rough. But I did a 8 min/mile pace. Tomorrow I will be in Palo alto California.

3:45PM (west coast time), 76F 50% humidity. I'm in Palo alto CA (visiting Stanford). I slep little last night and woke up early to catch a flight but I was able to sleep some on the plane which helped. I did a run around Stanford campus. The weather was great and it was dry and I did the 5 mile in an excellent pace.Goint to run tomorrow morning as well.

7:40AM (west coast time), 60F 65% humidity. Gogeous weather as usual. Did a wider loop around campus. I even passed by the track course and did a loop around it. They have a wall with all the names of their students who have world records, olympic medals and NCAA championships. Very impressive. I loved this run. Did a 7:43 pace.

10:20PM 55F, 85% humidity. Night run. I came back from Palo Alto CA today and after spending time with family and dealing with all sort of things found some time to run. Did a short loop around campus. Did 7:41 pace so it was short but fast. Tomorrow I will also have hard time to find time to run. I might skip it tomorrow and run on Saturday instead. Sunday suppose to be free.

5:40PM, 72F, 50% humidity. I missed my tempo run this week due to my travel to California. So I did sort of a tempo run today. Here are the splits:

1.5M @ 8:08 "warm up"
3.3M @ 7:11 tempo
1.6M @ 8:02 "cool down"

The reason for the odd splitsis that I was not using my regular route. I was feeling great after this run. Rest tomorrow and a long run on sunday.
