6 miles with Wendy that felt much harder than they should but still felt faster than 9:07 pace...agh!  Legs are tired and I am having trouble getting them to recover quickly.

In Houston for work and it was hot and muggy - 72 degrees, 90% humidity.   Warm up for 10 min and then 2 min on, 1 off for 30 min and then a 2 mile cool down.   It is done, is about the only good thing.

15 miles with Wendy.   It was 73 degrees and 70%+ humidity...again, not a fun day.   We started at the store and ran up Lancaster, El Campo Pershing unitl Ridgmar and ended up with a good 4.5 mile uphill climb.   We then ran down Ridgmar, 183 and the up the long climb on Roaring Springs.    Once up the top of the hill, this is where we missed the turn on Merrick and headed to far down Pershing and figured a way back to the store.  It was hot, the legs were fried and I was struggling staying focused.   We finished and after three weeks in a row of hard, hilly long runs, I think we need to run a little easier next Saturday and then hit the hills again in two weeks. 

Avg Pace 8:41
