AM - easy 4 mile run on a warm muggy morning.

PM - just under 6 miles or so after a very stressful day at work.  Not a great run, but one that I needed.

AM - 4 miles easy before an early work meeting.  Plan to get some additional miles later in the day.

PM - 8 miles after work - ran along the Alpharetta Greenway trail in the woods - pleasant weather - pretty hilly run had me worn out at the end.

AM - 7.5 miles on a cooler and breezy morning before work and heading home.  Seem to be in a bit of a running funk - not feeling very fit or easy on my runs as of late.  I will mix in a few workouts next week to break up the monotony of easy aerobic runs.

PM - slept in today so I had to wait until the evening for a run. Was still 90 at 6 pm but not a humid as it normally is. Decent 12 miles - did not feel as lethargic as I did during the week.
