I'm feeling extremely tired and overwhelmed.  Everything hurts.  I crashed right as I was turning into my neighborhood and totally messed up my hand.  I hope I didn' break it.

Pam's route workout - 46 degrees - it has been too lon since I did a speed workout (lots of tempo but no speed).  I wasn't sure how this was going to work out, but I hit a PR at every interval.
