AM - very slow effort this morning with Finn - dew points in the 70's, rainy sticky - body felt tired this morning too - but it was going to be my only opportunity to run today with a busy work schedule.

PM - treadmill workout - 2 x 2 miles at tempo with a 2 min rest.  1.5 mile warmup and 1.25 mile cool down.  Question the calibration of the treadmill for pace, which said I was running 6:22 pace at a 1% grade; but I worked off of my HR which was in a tempo zone. Felt good.
