Around 6 miles easy at 8:30am.  Ran from home south on the OCA to around Ardsley and back.

Not hot this morning, thankfully.  Very wet and humid as I just missed a pretty good rainstorm right before I headed out.  The trail was in pretty bad shape from all the rain.  I tried to avoid the puddles and mud as much as possible, but ended up with the backs of my legs caked in mud.

Felt fine and didn't push it.  End HR 140.

Off to a Yankees game in about an hour!  It is an afternoon game against the Twins.  Yanks have a 5-game win streak and Mussina is pitching.

Good running! And welcome to the blog - it's a cool way to see what kind of training you are doing. You have some big time races coming up. That will be sweet. Enjoy the ballgame tonight.
