| AM: 64F, 94%. 8 @ 7:51 AP. Drier air this week -- lower dew points, higher highs and lower lows, which is good for running...probably hit the track tomorrow.
Managed to barely tally 300 miles this month, with 7 missed days of running. A pretty good sign, I think. If I can keep my bad months around 300 and my good months 350+ then that'll give me a much better summer base than I've ever put down. So here's to a good June, hopefully.
PM: 84F, 50%. 4 @ 7:55 AP. 2 x 1 min @ 5k pace. With the dew point still down in the 60s it felt downright pleasant out there.

| AM: 67F, 98%. 10 miles. I went to the track today...I think for the first time in 2015? Workout was 6 x 800, (400m rec). Goal going in was only 5k pace (2:52) since I wasn't sure where I'd be -- other than strides, I haven't run 5k pace since November. It went well though, probably owing to the ~1000 miles I've run in the past 3 months. I averaged 2:46 (2:51, 2:46, 2:47, 2:44, 2:48, 2:40). So probably closer to 3k pace which seems more appropriate for that workout. I definitely won't be hitting the track as much this summer, but it's good to know the mileage is keeping me in decent track/race shape.
AM2: 83F, 54% (HI 85F). 4 @ 7:57 AP. Nothing like a nice recovery run in racing flats.

If San Antonio is any kind of beacon for the latest fitness trends (hahaha), then rollerblading is making a comeback.

| AM: 68F/98% -> 74F/90%. 20 @ 7:33 AP. 2 weekends in a row! Although last weekend, I debated whether to keep going because I felt so good. Today, by contrast, I was happy just to be done. Still had a decent dew point today - it was on the rise but only topped out at 71.
Going to see the Spazmatics tonight!
