      Nice miles to cap a great weekend. It was nice at 7 but warmed up very quick with the sun. I was super happy to not be racing today and to turn for the half finish-it just might be worse today than it was last year as it seems to be more humid.

      As several people commented on a similar post of mine early this week--there is something to be said for consistency--especially when we are coming off this recovery period. Wear your consistency badge with pride. :-)
