It was 40 degrees and misty this morning.  It had rained last night and was quite humid.  I had to run naked (no Garmin) because I forgot to charge it last night.  I ran a route that usually gets me between 10.5 and 10.6 miles so I will call it 10.5.  I think my pace was good because I got home when I should have.  It was actually quite stress-free to run without caring about time.
