5 noon miles, way harder than it should've been. Oh, just learned it was 82-86F. No wonder.

10 country miles before work. Up my Veyo hill, haven't been running this route much lately so it wasn't as easy as previous marathon training cycles.

10 MP miles, and while I had serious doubts, I nailed it. 7:41 pace overall. Perfect weather, overcast with 51F, nary a breeze. The first few miles I couldn't get to a 7:40 pace, was a 7:30 pace and struggled to get it up. On the return I was much higher, more like 7:45-7:55 pace. It all evened out, but had a solid 7:41 pace on the last mile.

20 in town along the Montana Marathon course, out and back from the end. Felt good nearly the entire way, pretty good confidence booster. Temps fantastic, 55-66F with a breeze.
