AM- 53 with a mist. 6 miles. 8x30s striders @3k pace. 

PM- 67, after voting another 6. It is amazing how many people is my state are fooled by Kasich and Trump. Makes me sick.

57 and windy. I still can't tell if I like these Innov8 shoes or not. Sometimes I think they bother my ankles and sometimes I feel like they fit perfect. Classic Wednesday. 10 Mile Warm up. 6x1/2 mile interval @6:40 (although I dogged that 6th interval again) w/ 1/8-1/4 recoveries. Not much after those, ready to come in as fighting the wind was draining.

38 with a cold rain. 3 Mile warm up and then 13.1 @ BQ MP or faster. I slightly aggravated my right (upper) hamstring (lower butt)  yesterday, so I was concerned. I did quite a bit of exercising and adductor stretches and that helped. So the 1st few warm up miles I took gingerly and then everything felt well enough so I had a good workout.
