Cooldown

This morning the temperature was about 68 degrees, a nice cooldown from Tuesday's run. It climbed a little higher as the day went on, but only by about 10 degrees, which means our days in the 90s are probably over. Plus I wanted to run while it was cooler since I did 4 of my 6 miles at a tempo pace. It started somewhat slow, at about 9:30/minute, and by the end of the fourth mile I was closer to 8 minutes/mile. Typical. Fortunately this weekend is "only" a 10-miler and I get a little bit of a respite before cranking it up over the following three weeks: 16, 18, and 20 before tapering.
