Slept in this morning, so didn't get my actual workout in until after classes and lunch, at about 2. Way hot out. 5 miles "warming up", 8 200-ish meter hill strides, recovery down. Wouldn't have been too bad of a workout, but the heat made it just brutal. 97 with humidity, and the sun was beating down on me. Cooled down for 9. Avg pace was 7:05. Cooling down I felt like I was just jogging, plus the heat kills my pace. But that was still around 7 flat! So that's good. Developing speed.
3 miles after dinner. Sped up to 5:10 pace at the last 200.
