AM - 8 miles in NYC along the west side on the Hudson River /Empire State Trail.  Quite warm and sticky even before sunrise.  Pace was really slow to keep the HR in check as a result.  Decent mileage though.  Here for business only until late this afternoon.

AM - met Dan at Wood Road/Milton Trail - which is now about equidistant from his new house and mine.   The trail is not quite long enough for 5 miles when out and back - so we had to double up a bit.

AM - 6 miles early with Finn in the neighborhood.  Pace is slow with the HR training effort - but feeling fairly good when I finish the runs this week.

AM - 9.25 miles with Finn - we arrived early downtown and did 3 miles before Dan and Greg arrived and did about a 10k with them.  Very humid but I am feeling like I am making some progress with the HR training.
