Notes

Started very slowly on purpose. Didn't wear my knee band (forgot), but tried to stay conscious of the knees. Warming up slowly in the first quarter mile seems to help. So I felt good from the start, and continued to get better. Did fartlek at Holmes Lake, another on 52nd just north of trail, and another in the final block. None of the exhaustion of Saturday's run. Also did some running on soggy grass, since the tunnel under 70th was closed again. Happy to have a sub-9:00 pace (barely).

I should note the 97% humidity, and yes, it did sprinkle briefly. Good thing it was fairly cool.
