It was 78 degrees this morning (yuck).  It did not cool off much during the night and it is supposed to be another hot one today.  I ran a few miles before our group run at a slow pace.  My legs were a bit sluggish after Saturday.  I ran 3.5 with the group and then ran a few more with Jedd before heading home.  Total 10.47 slow miles.

It was 55 degrees this morning.  I ran 10.65 miles by myself.  Barry was going to go with me but had to bail because his PF was acting up again.

Leaving today for a camping trip with the family in Island Park/Yellowstone.  Should be fun!
