Left for work this morning at 1:15 AM to support NASA's Ares I-X launch.  Hopefully it goes ok.  If it flies today, I travel to Florida tomorrow for a couple of weeks work doing disassembly.  I almost feel like Kory, waking up this early for work.  Or Davy on the days he does his crazy 2 am 30 mile runs.

Recovery is going fine, other than being tired from only a few hours sleep.  Sore hamstrings, but everything else is great.  I might, **might** go for a short run tomorrow.  Or maybe not.  Doesn't really matter- not planning on any miles this week.

Alarm went off before 1 am again this morning for work.  Don't think I'll get a run in.

PM- In Florida for work.  7 very easy miles.  Legs were sluggish, though less-so by the end as I knocked the rust off.  No soreness to speak of.  My mini-break is over- now 14 weeks of training for my 100.

They delayed the work we had scheduled for today.  So I went on a 10 miles run instead.
