AM - just 3.5 miles or so this morning in Gainesville before making the trip back home.  Thirty years ago I graduated from the University of Florida and yesterday my youngest daughter graduated from the very same school as did my two other daughters, my son-in-law, my sister and my grandfather.  "Circle of life" thoughts ruminated my head during my run.

AM - just a short 2 miles with Finn before work - he looked like he needed some exercise and I was short on time.  

PM - 5.5 miles at lunchtime outside.  Getting even warmer out now - up to the 90's by the end of the week.

AM - a little over 2.5 miles with Finn in the neighborhood before work.  

PM - around 4.25 at lunch outside - big hill in the middle- quick finish.  Felt a cramp or a pain in my left hamstring at the end.
