64F, SW 12 mph.  8:39 AP.  Tired legs, but not sore from the race.  Overall, not too bad, should be able to bounce back quickly but I've scheduled a couple more really easy days just in case

55F, S 21-31 mph.  7:39 AP.  I absent-mindedly ran an extra outbound mile today, so I had to pick up the pace and take a shortcut home to get back in time to take my kindergartner to school.  I got in about a mile of unexpected trail running at a fast pace.

Packing up some stuff today - I will move into the house in Oklahoma tomorrow, and the family will stay in TX to finish out the school year.  Guess I will check back in on FRB once I get internet and everything hooked up at the new place.  Hopefully all my Texas friends will still talk to me when I become an Oklahoman, or Oklahomite, whatever it is.

7:38 AP - last run in Abilene before moving.  Don't remember it except that they paved a road that I always ran on and it was nice.  The day before I move.  Jerks.

My first run in Okie was 1.3 miles.  I underdressed and my pinkies went numb, so I turned around.  40 mph wind, rain, etc.  Finished up the rest in the evening.  Overall 7:58/mile.
