Elevation chart:
Got about a 10 am start, and temps today ended up warming up quite a bit faster than the last few days–no risk of frost this morning either. Still, the temperature was in the low 50s and sunny to start–a little chilly for a sleeveless running shirt. By mile 15, I was happy to have the warmer weather gear on. Did a lot of out and backs, and found a new connection between streets.
