JRP.  3 miles with a coworker.  It has been really warm as of late.  But I know that will come to an end too soon.

JRP ~88°!  Goal 3,2,1 intervals at <6:40.  Stopped to wet my shirt in the sink between intervals. 

1/4 warm up.  

3- 6:35, 6:34, 6:37 (last week @ 75° 6:36, 6:39, 6:37)  1/2 mile recovery + shirt soaking cool down.

2- 6:39, 6:38 (6:40, 6:36)  1/2 mile recovery.

1- 6:35.  (6:38) 

0.7 mile cool down. 

I'm surprised I got these done.  They got progressively shorter and harder, maybe because of the heat.  Though I cooled down a lot between them.

I think I'm due for a really good tempo run, but today wasn't it.  My legs were tired, perhaps in small part from previous hot weather runs.  Plus it was kind of warm this morning.  Still some soreness in my left ankle.

EZ City Creek.  Had to take a detour into the canyon due to a minor landslide that closed the road.  Tired legs but felt pretty good overall.
