AM:  Easy run with the Atlanta Running Meetup (AVP 9:30)

 difficult run; it was hot (as usual); however, for 3 miles it felt like an asthma attack; air conditions seemed to be not good;  other runners complained too; it is getting cooler these days but it is still humid;  it started getting better after 5 miles and real better after 7 miles; i guess this is normal;  at least there were  no other complaints.

AM: 2 miles warm up

MP run 8 miles (2 miles 4% incline (AVP: 8:10) and 6 miles -2 - (-)3% decline (AVP: 7.41 - 6:30);  Wow this Mp run was hard first the incline of 4% for 2 miles and then 6 miles downhill.  I feel totally worn out today, i hope this gets better again.  I don't know what it is more the uphill part the downhill part.

I know what to do for recovery;  maybe i need to cut down on other things i do (coffee, ...).  Looking forward to next week.  I hope i am more used to the MP runs by next week.

Cooldown 1 mile 

 

PM:  Group run with David at the Cabbagetown running group
