windy and warm

the wind was kind of tricky today. it was definitely out of the south. no questions about that. i had to fight to first to stay out of the ditch then to stay out of the road. but as to whether it was a southeast or southwest wind, i have no idea. both ways felt about the same. thankfully, it was a warm 51 degrees! hopefully my mileage is enough to get ahead of eric and stay there for a day or two. just for info's sake, i have more miles today than i had on march 4, 2009. i'm over half way to my goal for the month. (31.10 miles @ 16.9mph)
