AM - 6 miles before church in a warm fog.  Decent run after a hot long run yesterday.  May just be starting to get into shape.  Busy day ahead. Teaching bible class - church gathering at my house and then a flight to ATL after evening worship.

AM - disappointedly unable to get a second run in yesterday with business travel getting in the way.  Headed to the gym early this morning.  Tempo/threshold workout.  2 mile warm up then 2.5 miles at MP then 2.5 miles at HM - thought I handled it well, but my HRM data that I checked later says not so well.  1 mile cool down.

 

PM - nice weather lunchtime run with Richie.  Upper 60's bright sunshine.  Felt really solid on this run - that was not too hard, but based on our comparative breathing - it was a bit tougher for him, whereas I felt like it was just a nice moderately paced aerobic run.  Got 8 miles in around the dump.
