| | The first part of the run was hampered by a sore calf/tendon issue that seemed to appear a bit yesterday during the 5K. Once I finally worked through that pain I then started suffering from the heat and humidity. It scared me a little when I felt a little knot in my chest so I started taking a walk break each 0.5 mi. If I were to guess the knot was probably just my lungs complaining about all the moisture in the air reducing its ability to suck in enough oxygen. 5.04 mi in 01:04:03 @ 12:41/mi.

| | On a Monday you need a little extra inspiration to run and I suppose today's inspiration was drawn from the many frustrations in my work. Whatever it was, I found my thoughts changing from "ugh, I'll just skip today" to "let's get it done". 7.00 mi in 01:27:24 @ 12:29/mi

Weather was a bit more tolerable as thunderstorms in the area kept the sun covered and occasionally provided a breeze. I pretended not to notice the occasional thunder or lightning.

Last night was miserable in terms of sleep. Hard time falling asleep, then waking up in the early hours of the morning unable to fall back to sleep, then rising early. Yuck. Made for a long day.
