Another sound 6+ miles tempo before dawn this morning. As always it was hard / surreal / insane work at that time of morning, but I did notice that after about 4 miles I began to settle into a rhythm. I always take that as a good sign that on some level I'm meant to be a long-distance runner.

The watch showed 4 seconds slower than the identical route at the identical time last week. But both times there was a good minute of stopping to fiddle with the mp3 player. And this week the going was softer, so I'm taking that as a slight improvement.

Americana gave way to And Justice For All.
