46F.  11 @ 7:10 AP.  Included 7 x 1/2 mile reps, 60-sec jog recoveries.  Averaged 2:59 (3:06, 3:01, 2:55, 2:57, 3:01, 2:58, 2:55).  Felt ok, kinda meh.

It always feels haphazard and random to do these anywhere but the track.  Unfortunately, I was booted from the HS track by a school district cop back in September for being there on a school day, so no track on weekdays anymore.  I never understood what was so suspicious to him about a middle-aged shirtless guy roaming around school grounds at 4:55am... Yep, he was a weirdo.

58F, foggy.  7 miles...watch died after ~3 miles, but I definitely didn't log any sub-4 half-miles (auto lap was still set to 0.5 from yesterday).

Seeing the light at the end of the tunnel with work this week, and should be able to log some doubles next week.
