19 mile hilly bike ride this morning

Tonight I made it out the door about 8:30 for my run and it was still 85 degrees.

1 mile warm up

4 x 1 mile with 1/2 mile recovery jogs (6:15, 6:20, 6:52, 6:35)

1/2 mile cool down

I was all over the place on my mile repeats and they hurt way more than they should, but I guess since I haven't done any fast running for about 6 weeks, it's a good start.

Yeah, good start. It'll be a while before I see any of my miles in the 6's.

For 85 degrees? After a bike ride? I'd take those repeat miles! Not as consistent as you wanted, but still, that's a good workout.

I ditto what TomK said! GOOD JOB, Rhett!!!

85 degrees that at 8:30?! Way to get the mile repeats in. Nice work!

Burt, that is the beauty of running. The only person we should be comparing ourselves to is our self.

Tom, Smooth, Matt...It was a dry 85 degrees. :) Unfortunately it will only get hotter for about the next 5 to 6 months.

6s, yowza! I don't think I could even exit a burning that fast....Keep up the great running!

From Burt on Wed, Apr 01, 2015 at 09:24:57 from 184.101.203.22

I compare myself to you in all aspects for my life. And I'm just not measuring up!
