Ran 6 miles with the training group at a steady tempo pace. Temperature was 57 degrees when we started at 5 AM. What a difference cool weather makes! I felt very comfortable and was able to maintain a steady pace and I noticed for the first time that I was actually accelerating going up hill! I think the Chi Running technique is finally starting to kick in.

Started out running 9(Lake Grapevine) for today but ended up with 10. Ran a steady pace and negative split on last mile.  Maintained HMP plus 20 sec/mile (avg:8:40min/m). WX: temp= 66. slightly muggy, light breeze. Had a good 20 minute warn-up before the run. Had problems with my left foot going numb halfway through but finally got the right adjustment on the lacing.
