Air quality finally cleared up this afternoon, went for a very hot run. It was high 80, mid 90s with the humidity. Good heat training I suppose.

2.6 later on at Battelle Darby and then went to one of the parks there with Whitney an Becca.

Easy run with some strides. It wasn't quite as hot today, low 80s. I felt better than I have the past few runs. Also walked about 4 miles over a few walks with Whitney and Becca. Whitney is getting quicker, I have to accelerate beyond my typical walking pace to keep up with her when she really gets going.

8x400m at 5k pace with a minute jog between in preparation for the 5k next week. Felt easy, like I could have done 20 or more reps- but also didn't feel quite as smooth as I'd like, I had a bit of shortness of breath. Averaged 83-84. Also ran a couple 200ms and a couple strides.

Hot easy run with 4 strides. Felt a little sluggish but better as the run went on.

Easy run, a couple 200ms at 5k pace and a couple strides. Very muggy.
