Rainy morning.  Great chance to try out my rain jacket.  I got way too hot.  Seems it doesn't have enough ventilation.  I was sweating underneath which seemed to defeat the purpose of keeping me dry.  Maybe it was just too warm outside to wear a jacket (60o).  I ended up taking the jacket off and letting it rain on me.  I wasn't cold and after a while I wasn't even aware of the rain anymore.

The rain held off today.  Nice temps again.  Went to the rail trail to do some speed work.  Warmed up for 1st mile (AP 10:23).  Did .25 intervals of speed.  Ran for .25, then stopped watch while I recovered.  My AP during the speed intervals was 8:48.  Did intervals for 1.25 miles.  Easy pace for remaining distance.

Overall pace for with warmup, fartlek, and cool down 9:54

Had a weird dream last night that I was at the race with QP and I didn't start the race.  The race started and she took off so I asked my husband "why aren't I running".  We didn't seem to know so I was rushing trying to find my bib and shoes etc.  What a stressful dream
