Is is just me, or did it feel like an oven out there this morning? I have obviously forgotten what it's like to train in the summer, because it was only about 70 when I ran but it felt like 90. "Easy" run down to Highland High over to Stratford and back on 20th East. HR was 7-10 BPM higher than normal (my HR is always higher than everyone else's I know) for this pace and distance. Haven't slept well for the past 5 nights due to some back pain. Maybe that contributed to the problem. Some days you feel like a gazelle, others you feel like a manatee on land. Today was a manatee day.
Congrats to everyone from FRB who ran Ogden last Saturday. After being out of the loop for a year, I was amazed to see the dominance of the group.
