Was awakened this morning at 4:00 am by the sound of banging and crashing outside my hotel window, went to see what was going on and patio furniture was being blown all over the place slamming into the sides of the hotel.  I thought, well that doesn't look fun to run in.    Tried to get back to sleep but never could so I got out of bed around 4:30 and decided to use the hotel gym today instead.  Found out it didn't open until 5:30 so I stretched a bit, layed down with my HR monitor to find my resting HR,  it went all the way down to 34bpm,  pretty excited about that, and then decided to go run the Downtown Disney loop and test how bad the wind really was.  Set out, did the 2 mile loop and decided it was tolerable and ran up Katella to the "fuzzy bunny trail" headwind the whole way, ran the trail for 2 miles out and 2 back and then back to the hotel.  Had a wicked tail wind coming back which was a lot of fun.  You know it's really windy when your running a 6:00min pace and can still feel the wind pushing you.

Good run, not nearly as nice as all the other days since I've been here.
