I am in PA, visiting my parents for a while ... one would think if you drove 700 miles north you might get a little cooler weather ... it is hotter ... forecast to hit 100 next 2 days.

Did progression run with Alex this morning along the river.  Lots of options for flat running around here, which I intend on taking advantage & taking a break from the hills of Atl!

Legs finally started feeling better today, until I ran ... calves are still tight & feeling abused ... so I will ease back into things, but return to daily running.  Brought my bike as well, as I plan to incorporate more cross-training.

 9:00, 8:30, 8:00, 7:30  Someone was complaining and whining about the heat and being dehydrated (and no, it was not me), he hung on to hit the target splits I had set, but stopped at 4 & skipped the mile cool down.  We walked up to the corner store to get some water, and walked home the last mile.  Good run though.

Easy 4 along river @ 8:30 pace, calves still hurting.

PM - 9:00 ... still 92 degrees ... Rode an easy 5 miles along river on bike to loosen legs, running on section of Appalachian trail in morning.

9 am - 90 degrees - 5 @ 10:30 AP on AT with Alex

Probably will run a few more this evening, after it cools back down to 95!

Legs felt better today, so race basically required a 5 day recovery!
