8:30am, 83 degrees, and very humid! Ok, so my plan this morning was to go 10, but time didn't allow for 10 unless I hit them at a quick pace. I just didn't think this was a smart idea and altered the run to 8 miles at a very easy pace. This run was much akin to a cool-down after a workout. This was my cool-down for the week. It was also my 3rd run in 18 hours (17.45 miles) and I must say, I'm pretty much shot. With the humidity, only 6 hours of sleep, and basically having run home, gone to sleep and gotten up to go run, I'm very exhausted. However, the good news is that I've got almost 60 hours of rest ahead of me as my next run is not until Monday night. 8 miles in 1:04:22 (8:03s).

Gotta love the Sat morning to Mon evening rest- really helps recharge the batteries for the next week of training.
