58F, 86%. 18 @ 7:14 AP. Last 3 were 6:41, 6:35, 6:21. Back in San Antonio. Felt surprisingly good, after the first few I-just-had-a-long-vacation miles were complete. Went to bed before 9pm last night and got 8+ hours of sleep, which was awesome. I actually slept pretty good the whole vacation in my princess bed, but there's no substitute for your own bed.

PM: 68F. 4 @ 7:37 AP. Worked up a sweat - I'm definitely not ready for Buttsweat Towel Season to start.

62F, 84%. 14 @ 7:23 AP. It just took me forever to get going today, never felt comfortable until about 10 miles in, then started dropping the pace finally. Probably just 3 quality miles at the end. I'm someone that takes a lot of time to get warmed up but that's a little ridiculous! No matter, should be feeling good by next weekend. Looking nice and cool for the 50k so far.
