Tired legs this morning. I went to the dog/horsepark for soft surface running. I like it for fartlek workouts. I warmed up 20 minutes and ran 10 x 2 minutes on/off. I hit 6:42 average for the six miles of fartlek. I cooled down another mile. I thought I saw Jake running across the street from the park, but it may not have been him.

I think it's too cold for September 13. The wind was nasty.

I did 8 laps around the horsepark this morning (like every morning!)... but I didn't get over there until close to 7:45... got to sleep in and go into work late today :-)

I think it was you. I was just starting. You must have been finishing. Nice place to run.

Usually I'm there around 6am most days. I've put a solid 50-60 miles in at that park already this week :-)
