pm--5 Sone easy miles, feeling through tight hamstrings. Seems like they aren't as cringy when I focus on lifting my knees.

pm--5 Grass loops in a cooler evening. I did have to struggle, however, w/ the wind. I thought about striders but aborted halfway into the first. Didn't want to push the hammy.

am--6 Newer morning route w/ 5x 60-sec. pickups. I tossed and turned all night, but, surprisingly, it was easy to jump out of bed this morning. What an autumnal morning it was. This morning was a little cooler than it normally is in the beginning third of September.

am--5 Grass loops in the dark. I got slobber attacked by some fluffy dogs and had a good chuckle when, with my bare feet getting colder, the line "The lunatic is on the grass" came through the earbuds. PF, not the plantar fasciitis version, makes most things better.

pm--6 Tready light tempo. The tempo amounted to about 15 minutes of 7:45 pace. It took more focus than it should have. I'm bringing some different paces to try to work on my fitness. Kind of fun.

pm--5 Grass mikes w/ 4x striders at the practice field. What a beautiful evening even if it was a bit hazy. The new Flaming Lips LP is great, a return to form.
