Overall anaylsis:

Today I was able to run comfortably in the heat. I can tell that I'm getting used to it and improving my physical and mental strength. Purposefully watched my pace to keep it slow, especially while running downhill so I didn't burn myself out too quickly. After the 4 miles did a real slow 1 mile walk/jog as my cool down. Shins had a couple of very small complaints, but they subsided very quickly. Lots of stretching and massages tonight.

Running thoughts:

Today I was in the zone. I was really focused on how my body felt as well as my breathing. Ended up missing my turn around point which left me 1 mile from where I started, so I used that extra mile as my cool down. Took a very very cold shower when I got home, and it felt amazing. Going to be doing some cold plunges in the future. I also want some more hills in my run, but I'm scared that the downhill will undo all the work I've done on my shins, so hopefully I can find something that won't be too bad.

9:18 pm: 2.45 mile walk
