I ran early this morning around the new solar community they are building adjacent to mine. Then I ran into Benders Landing and did 2 loops around the lake before returning home. The last mile I did at 7:37. Otherwise I ran at a 8:13 pace. It was already close to 80 degrees at 5:00 AM with about 80% humidity.

I set our two G2s the night before along my route. This morning I ran over to the new junior high and the ran the big loop around all the subdivisions in my area and then back home. I averaged a 8:20 pace. It was warm and humid so I just kept it steady and did not push it.
