Another 8 base miles today.  Things felt a little bit better today and the legs were not quite as fatigued today but nowhere near where I want them to be.  I imagine things will start feeling progressively better as the week goes along.  It was another chilly one today by Las Vegas standards, the starting temp was about 71.  I think summer is finally over and we have probably seen the last of 100 degree days.  I must be getting climatized to running in Vegas when 70 feels cold.  I am gonna freeze at the start of SGM where the temps can be below 40.  I'm going camping this Friday night up on Mt. Charleston and there is a chance of rain and temps could be around 40......I should get up and run that morning just to get the lovely feeling of running in the freezing cold......NOT!  I think I will wait until I get home in the evening to run.  I have run up there before and running at 8500 ft is not fun and the dirt roads are a mess.....don't need a sprained ankle at this stage of the game.
