It was warm (72) and windy but the humidity is lower so it didn't feel too bad.  I had thought of doing some speedwork this morning but after running the first couple of miles I thought it would be better to just take it easy today.  My legs didn't have much in them.  I just had a hard time getting going this morning.  I have been out of my normal schedule for about the last week and I need to get back into a more normal routine.  I did feel better later in the run and picked it up on a couple of the miles just to shake the legs out. 

I am traveling to Huntsville today but the family is going with me so that will make the trip much better.

Have a good trip. Always nicer when the family can come along, too.
