Less Kansas Wind

Today was much calmer than Tuesday. The temperature was supposed to be hotter as well, but I think it peaked around noon and then cooled to the upper 50s by the time I ran late in the afternoon. I went my 6 miles, winding through the neighborhood and parks, at a pace just a hair under 9 minutes/mile. My last mile was at 8:18, which actually felt good. I tried to keep it loose the whole time and a few times even had to rein it in. That's what running in cooler weather will do for you. I know that won't last, though, as it's already getting warmer back home and summer isn't far behind. I enjoyed running the past few days. My Garmin told me I had my fastest 5k time (since I've had this one), at (I think) 27:01. Not blazing fast, but still not bad for a normal training run.
