low 60s, windy.  We had a "fun run" today at work so I did an easy 5k or so before I left, thinking they would probably be a little skimpy on the distance.  They were...about 1.6 on the fun run.  Just a recovery day anyway, so altogether that about did the trick.

Nice recovery day. Do you have any races before OKC?

From SlowJoe on Sat, Apr 02, 2011 at 09:50:31 from 184.79.24.255

Thanks Rye, believe it or not I ended up getting some free leave out of it.

Tracy - where I work they always manage to suck out all the "fun" from everything but at least they are trying.

IJR - I hate those shoes. I can't run fast in them and they won't seem to wear out so I use them on recovery days.

Thanks Dale, nope not planning anything until OKC right now.
