So I had to do another one of those run to work, run home things today. Ran to work at 5pm, 91 degrees with a dewpoint of 74 giving us a relative humidity of over 60%. Ugh. Did 3.55 miles on the way to work tonight. Splits were as follows: 7:05, 6:50, 7:16, and 4:14 for the .55 (7:42). After work at 1am the temp was 82. Did 5.4. First 2.4 in 18:10 (7:34s). Last 3 in 22:00 (7:20s). Quite happy with the run home as I was running at a pace that I considered moderate easy. The way there I was late and pushing it, but the temperature and humidity were quite oppressive. I'll take the splits from a cold start.
