Great run this morning. Once again, I was wide awake at 4:00 AM ready to go. Slept a bit more and got out on the road at 5:20 AM. The weather was perfect, but I overdressed. I think it had to be 50 degrees this morning. Ran my normal loop, but needed to do some extra distance in the neighborhood to get one full hour in. Feeling good and looking forward to the evening swim.

Workout felt really good, but the pool was crowded today and the damn people didn't have any clean towels. I love air drying off! NOT!!!! Anyhow it was all worth it because I tried a new workout:
1 x 400 yd slow pace with 45 secods rest
1 x 300 yd slow pace with 45 secods rest
