50F.  8:22 AP.  Decided to go for a short test drive.  Felt ok, but I'll probably take another day or two off.  I want to make sure the legs are completely reset.  This next little block of training will be tilted toward the mile - 5k distances.  Then when it starts getting hot, I'll balance it out again with a bit of everything.

skipped this morning....40+ mph winds at 37 degrees...no thanks.  I think the extra day off will benefit me anyway.  It's been a really weird weather week.  The night we got home from Boston, we spent a couple hours in the tornado shelter as the sirens were going off.  Tonight it'll freeze which is weird for late April.
