6.1 miles @ 10:23/mi.  Murdock trail north with Kevin.

The temps are a bit warmer, but it felt colder almost. I think the humidity has been high.

8 miles @ 9:13/mi  Murdock trail north with Wayne, Kevin, and Alex.

It was great having Wayne along on a run again, and having Alex run with us was a extra bonus. Alex is a soccer player, not a runner per say, but I don't think he broke a sweat on the run.

This was mostly an easy social run, but I threw in a quick mile on mile 7 (7:47/mi).
