Back in Lafayette. Late evening run. Vinton Woods - 9 miles, averaged 7:44. Picked it up at the end as a nasty storm was coming. Had some pretty good debris stuck to my sweaty torso from the wind that kicked up. I like to think I fooled people into thinking it was chest hair.

AM: Union to Courtland - 7.33 miles averaged 7:46 w/ 8 x 1 min on/off (~5:43 pace). 3 up, 2 down. Weather not comfortable, glorified strides very humbling.  

PM: North side - 6 miles, averaged 7:58. More super sweatiness.

9 miles, averaged 7:22. Did a 3.1 mile tempo after a 2 mile warm up in 19:21 (6:14 average): 6:25, 6:09, 6:10, 36.2 (5:47 pace). A bit above HMP from April, so I'll take it as a start.

Not too bad after 12 hours of celebrating my friend's dissertation defense yesterday, and eating like an idiot today (14" pizza and Caesar salad). Looks like fruit for dinner.
