Ran a couple miles to the track, only to discover that there was a meet getting in the way of my planned 4 x 1600 workout (darn kids!). I cursed briefly, and then did my 4 fast miles with a 1/4 mile recovery on the streets. My splits were 7:28, 7:27, 7:38, 7:38. I felt okay with that. It was windy through portions of the run, but somehow wind doesn't feel so bad when it's warm. It was mid 60s. It felt pretty good, but it was a little on the hot side. I was thirsty when I was finished. I'm starting Ken Follett's Fall of Giants, which I checked out from the library (digitally). But I'll be racing the clock. I have 13 days to read it, and it's pretty long. I'm pretty sure I can do it in 7 days or less. We'll see. I'll let you know too if I liked it. The only books of his that I read were Pillars of the Earth and World Without End. Those were both pretty good, but I suspect very different from this one.
