PM - Treadmill tempo workout - 15 min warm up then 30 mins at tempo effort (using HR) and then 10 min cool down. ~7.5 miles.  Little tough in the last mile or so, but good solid workout overall.

PM - lunch Run of 8.5 miles with Finn on the trails of Brittle, Summit, Phillips Circle and Wood road.  I thought it was pleasant to warm but Finn seemed to be having some difficulty with the temps - otherwise I think we would have done a little more running - and  I did not want to overheat him.
