7 miles fat burning tonight. Didn't feel too great and the run felt very sluggish.

7.9 miles tonight, .65 of which were walking recovery to reduce heart rate, mostly easy base run, bordering on fat burning. Hot, humid, typical summer night.

5.25 miles @ 7:45, .25 mile walking cool down to bring heart rate down, 2.5 miles @ 8:00s. 85 degrees, humid. Decent AB run.

12 sets of stadium stairs at work (inside an ice rink) tonight in about 1:07-1:08. I'm pleased with this workout as it was done in about the same time I was doing it when I was training for St Louis and Boston, which encourages me that my slower times and the distance I'm able to cover at present are more connected with the heat and especially the humidity than anything else. Rough road equivalent: 9 miles.

Over 90 degrees, humidity over 70%, sunny, hot, humid, sticky, nasty, foul, abusive, no good, St Louis summer day. Planned on doing 3 x 3miles easy with a drink and a cool off every loop. On the second loop the humidity simply took over. I was able to do each loop in a progressive fashion averaging 8:03s on the first loop and 7:42s on the 2nd loop. Had I backed off the pace a bit on the 2nd loop I probably could have finished it, cooled off and given consideration to a 3rd loop. As it was at the 5 mile mark I decided to finish with .5 hard (sub 7:00s) and walk the last .5 in.
