My notation might be off, but that is the gist of tonight's workout. Despite the vicious heat the Chicago Marathon runners found last Sunday, today was cool. So cold, in fact, I realized it is time to get on with it and buy winter running gear. My old sweatshirt won't cut it, nor will my tights which no longer fit. Seems no one is wearing tights now anyway.

Left my watch at home, making the intervals strange.

Not much to say except that I felt good, yet tired. my mind wasn't in it. Hard to explain. As running 200s go, I'm not used to the distance, and so, not used to the pace. So much to learn, realizing how little I learned in the first place so many years ago.
