AM:  75F, 93%.  7 @ 7:52 AP.  In the last mile I picked it up for 0.5 in 2:47...definitely not quite ready for all that, so back to slogging around until maybe Sunday.  I am kinda thinking about a July 4th race though (4-miler).

PM:  89F, 52% (H/I 94F).  5 @ 8:16 AP.

AM:  75F, 94%.  6 @ 7:55 AP.  Some large, loose neighborhood dogs started following me after a tenth of a mile or so, until we came upon a lady walking her tiny dog, at which point they left me to harass them...so I went to help.  Then the lady was pretty angry at "my" loose dogs and it was very little consolation when I said they weren't mine.  So, like the pied piper, I led them to the unpopulated side of the neighborhood where they're still building streets, and they got tired over there.
