| | Well, the rain has gone and went it the overcast skies and cooler temperatures. As a result, today's slow run was SLOW. I had planned for 7.0 mi but the sun and heat got the best of me so I bailed at 6.50 mi.

| | Just a short jog this morning to cap off yesterday's long run. Trying to avoid tiring out the legs in the first week of the new running schedule. |

| | Ugh. I am not sure I even managed 5.5 hours of sleep. Which then made for a no fun jog during the "cool" hours of the day (aka pre-sunrise). We hadn't made it to 8am before the weather alert sprang up on the television indicating that we had gone from a heat advisory to an excessive heat warning. |

| | 5 mi w/ 3 @ tempo pace. Sleep is still being difficult to come by.
Today was the first tempo run on the new training schedule. While it was there I knew that the heat we experience this time of year might turn it into another easy run so I was pleasantly surprised by this morning's temperatures. A few clouds that hid the sun as it broke the horizon helped keep things bearable until late in the workout. All we have left in the first week of the training schedule is a few easy miles tomorrow.
