AM:  68F, 89%.  10 @ 7:46 AP.  ridiculous work week... A couple of 4am runs is all I've had time for and probably nothing tomorrow.  I need to become a professional runner...just need to drop an hour or so from my marathon PR - should be doable.

AM:  Lots of lightning so I did 11 on the treadmills at work this morning.  It was probably a good thing because I ended up getting in a workout instead of another 10 miles easy.  I did 8 x (3 min on / 1 min off).  The on's averaged out to around 10 mph (started slower, finished faster) and the off's were 6.7.  So at least I accomplished something this week with running...next week I should be able to hop back on the horse and get in more runs.

AM2:  69F, 91%, raining.  5 @ 8:13 AP.
