Planned to go easy-ish this morning but after the first mile in the Park I was compelled to run faster than planned. Competitive pride or something just won't allow me to let any recreational runners in the Park "beat" me (even though technically there is no race going on). So I ended up running most of my miles close to 7 min pace even on the rolling hills in the north section. Temperatures were mild but a cold front was bearing down and arrived with rain right after I finished. Went out to lunch later and with the rain, the temps must have dropped 15 to 20 degrees. Miserably damp and chilly - yuck.

Today should be my last day in NYC for a while as the trial is set to conclude with closing arguments tomorrow.

Nice job getting in some pretty good workouts this week despite all the work distractions.

I hate it when my job gets in the way of my hobby!
