Comments:

Today was a lot more hot and humid than last week. So, although I would have liked to be faster, my goal was really to finish and not get overheated. I wasn't too much slower - less than a minute - so that's good. It takes me a good mile before my legs start to loosen up. I guess that's why I like 10ks and 1/2 marathons better. ;) Tried to drink water and every opportunity. Some of the residents in the neighborhood had extra water stops and hoses out, which was really nice.

Rocked my new shoes. Arches were a little sore at first, but I really like them.

Fixed some of the issues from previous weeks. Nice to see them incorporating feedback so quickly.
