5.9mi, 52:30, 28 JUL 10, Fort Leavenworth, Kansas

iThink: Dos Gringos, "Going in for Guns"

WX at 0700: 75.0 (23.9) DP 73.9 (23.3) BP 30.03 (1016) SSW 3 RH 96

Odometer 2: 207.1mi

Today wasn't intended to be a hard run, but I knew I was going a bit longer since I had a rest day. I figured I'd be good for about 6, and that was the case, albeit quite a bit faster than I expected.

This wouldn't have been a particularly auspicious day for that since it was a little warmer than I like, but for whatever reason, I could hold about 8:30/mi at the start, so I did, with the usual variations.

Either that, or acclimatization has finally occurred, just in time for the end of the summer. Awesome.

Today's iThink was a commander's override. My kids, in their usual, sugary Disney Channel fare, have been hearing a lot of Selena Gomez's "Round and Round," which means I've been hearing a lot of that. This is, I suspect, part of Disney's TV division's attempts to play up their stars and revenues before they grow some legitimate T&A and are too old for that channel and find horizons elsewhere (e.g., Hilary Duff.) There was no motherfucking way I was going tolerate a Disney Channel song in the back of my head this morning, so I forced one of my favorite Dos Gringos running mantras and went.

And the world was a little righter this morning.
