PM:  86F, 51% (HI 88F).  6 @ 8:15 AP.  Extended the normal lunch run a bit to see if the creek levels receded enough to let me start at the other trailhead in the morning.  Looked fine.  It's the little things...

AM:  70F, 94%.  10 @ 7:40 AP.  Short stride routine in the last 3 miles.  I don't know how long the DP is going to keep hanging out in the upper 60s, but I'm loving it.  Delay the pain!

PM:  87F, 49% (HI 89F).  4 @ 8:23 AP.

AM:  71F, 84%.  14 @ 7:13 AP.  6-mile warmup, followed by 8 @ AT.  Averaged 6:40/mile (6:41, 6:39, 6:44, 6:40, 6:33, 6:41, 6:42, 6:36).  Always tough to feel out the correct effort this time of year, but I think I was right on this morning, given that the last couple miles felt pretty rough.

Right now, I'm targeting 1 workout a week from a rotation of 4 different paces (5k, 10k, LT, AT) to try stay in good general shape.

PM:  no time
