Unplanned day of rest.  Work has been somewhat all-consuming of my time the last few days.

AM - 3 miles with Finn before work.

PM - treadmill workout after work.  6 x 800 @ just over 6 min pace with a 400 rest in between reps.  Surprisingly decent workout.

PM - 7.5 miles on the treadmill at lunchtime.  Foot was slightly sore this morning after yesterday's workout.  Not sure if it was because of treadmill or because of the intensity.  Was mostly fine by the time I ran at lunchtime today.

AM - about 3 miles on the golf course with Finn.

PM - 5.25 miles outside at lunchtime.  Very warm and humid.  Not too enjoyable.  Someone driving by stopped me to ask for directions.  I wonder how often that happens to me...maybe once or twice per month.  Just seems odd given gps/navigation on phones and cars.
