In Amish country. 

AM- 4.25 THICK Fog, 69/97% wet! Hit the trails and cut it a bit short because of work... and well there are critters out when you run in the dark long before sunrise in amish country.

PM- 6.75 84 and warm. Felt ok, easy run. No cars, just a few horse and buggy, rabbits, ducks and a bike team.

Huzzah. Whew. Afternoon was the only time I could run. 86, hot, sunny and wet. 2 Mile warm up, 6x1 mile repeats 5x1 Mile repeats with 1/4 recoveries. I did these at HMP. Well the first 2 faster (7:06) and the last 2 slower, but that was the average. I set out to do 6 repeats, but I was a pretty good ways out with no water and decided not to force the issue. The deer seemed to agree. I did think about asking the Amish that went by on horse if he had any water, but just trudged it back to the hotel.

Hot. Early run. 73º-79º/97%/73DP. Tough run. Lots of sun. This time when I saw the deer I listened to Yasir and got some water. Today was certainly a belt day. No watch, but at least 3 MP-HMP miles in the mix. Once the sun was up the energy just left.
