5.0mi, 42:47, 6 JAN 12, Fort Leavenworth, Kansas

Think:
The Sisters of Mercy, "Temple of Love"
Liz Longley, "Avery"

WX at 0700: 42.1 (5.6) DP 30.9 (-0.6) BP 29.74 (1007) SSW 13 RH 64

Odometer 11C: 73.2mi

Z4. Average/max heart rate = 155/171

Today started fast because after seeing the temperature, I went deliberately light on snivel gear. That was definitely the right choice given how warmed up I was by the end.

The price I paid for that was a jackrabbit start the likes of which I haven't done in a while.

"Temple of Love" is a little too fast tempo for me to use as an iThink unless I'm going really, really fast. I realized this as "Avery" is not quite thematically right, but the tempo was closer to what my actual stride is. I'm sure there's a correlation to tempo and the songs that get used as iThinks, which might explain why some songs get so much traction in these runs. The iThinks are also to a lesser extent a barometer of what my musical tastes happen to be veering towards at the time.

I run differently (and I would guess, more efficiently) in shorts only than in warmer running toggery. At least it seemed that way this morning.
