perfect weather this morning and for whatever reason my legs felt amazing. I believe the 15 minutes straight of massaging my legs with the stick yesterday and the pool run allowed my legs to really recover. I'll have to remember this and take the extra time to roll my legs and stretch as I get older.

Ran with Will for a bit then later in the run ran with Jerry. Was almost creamed by a car that jumped the curb. Looked like he was texting and driving. Luckily, he turned back onto the road. As he was doing that I flipped him off.

Off and on rain with Philippe. Rain wasn't really an issue until the last mile pickup when we became drenched and water logged. Had to slow myself down as I ended up running pretty fast as it was nice and cool. Splits:

8:33,7:52,7:37,(5:37,5:38,5:28,5:29),8:00,(5:31.5:29,5:28),8:00,(5:25,5:24),7:54,(5:24),8:16
