AM:  68F, 87%.  8 @ 7:38 AP.  After a day off and 7+ hrs of sleep I felt well-rested this morning, fairly rare feeling, and the result was a sub-8:30 for mile 1, and my legs DIDN'T want to buckle going up 10-ft hills. What a luxury!

PM:  4 TM miles, including 4 x 1/4 mile on/off @ 10.0/7.0, out of boredom and Rested Legs Syndrome (RLS).

AM:  62F, 87%.  8 @ 7:17 AP.  Did a little bit @ HMP on the way back -- a couple half miles, and a "blind" mile (not checking pace) that I ran at a much harder effort than HM, thereby completely defeating the purpose of a blind mile, and it was still only a 6:02.  I think I've concluded that a PR of any size this weekend would be a win.

PM:  4 mile TM plod

65F, 91%.  6 @ 7:47 AP.  Large contingent of shirtless runners this morning.  Felt at home on the trail.  No PM run planned, not going to try to make up yesterday's missed run.

60F, 5 @ 7:35 AP.  Legs feel good, training was great, I'm in good shape.  Ready to take what the course/conditions will give and run a good race.  Goal is a PR.
