An easy 6 with 6 x approx. 100 m strides and approx. equal recovery jog.  I just did the strides along my route and then jogged the rest of the way home.

It sure is hard to figure out how to dress for runs lately.  When the wind was gusting I was just fine, but when it wasn't (or when I had a tailwind) I was hot.  I should have worn shorts and just one long sleeved shirt.  I need to remember that for next time.  And I guess I should have looked at the temp before going out.  It was 55 (with 13 mph winds).  When I was out earlier this morning, it was in the low 40s.

I had the opposite problem. I was find with a tail wind and cold when running into the wind. I guess you just can't have it both ways, eh.

I agree about not knowing how to dress - today I kept getting hot and taking off my long sleeve fleece, then I'd get way cold and put it back on again! (Still beats running with the stinging snow needles we had last month!)
