<p>Good morning, Team!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>EmCo: And today (over yesterday for your three miler) will be hotter and more humid, but at least you're out and back at it... good for you!</p>

<p>Don: You are right. 10 seconds in a mountain race is truly insignificant. I know that. I'm not at all bummed about running slower this year, because I know that although it was 10 seconds, I ran exactly the same as last year. Same as with Mount Washington. I was faster this year by 30 seconds but in reality it was the same race. Thing is, I was hoping that I would be wildly faster this year just from having a full year of mountain running under my belt. But not so. I know myself, though, and when I do something new, I tend to hit workouts very hard to best prepare myself, so going into last year, even though it was my first year doing that kind of thing, I entered in good climbing shape.</p>

<p>Me...</p>

<p>5.65 mile run early this hot and humid morning.</p>

<p>Great day!</p>
