73F, 75%. 7:39 AP. Slow start this morning, had to wake up early to get this in before church. My legs finally woke up around the 6 or 7 mile point, and I even charged a few hills in the last 5 miles or so.
Heat wave this week should end by Friday and my 20-miler next weekend will be a lot more pleasant. |

76F, 62%. 8:47 AP. But, I brought it home with a sub-8:40 on mile 6.
106 degrees for a high today - someone needs to tell Oklahoma that it's September now. I do see some nice low numbers on the forecast this next weekend though. I just need to get in some kind of 10K-sharpening workout in this week. Maybe Friday. |

| 78F, 65%. 7:46 AP. Got up really really early....15 miles completed before 6:45am - ouch. Tried to keep an honest effort, kind of a hot and cranky run. |

79F, 63%. Not a good effort today. I went down to the track for a 4 x 1600, 400m recovery. Normally I can do these around 10k pace and my goal 10K would have me doing them in about 6:05. Well, at almost 80 degrees I thought 6:15 would be pretty good, maybe 6:20. The first one was 6:22 (barely HM pace) and I was completey smoked. Jogged the recovery lap, which didn't recover me at all, and started on the next one. I made it to about 200m and bailed on the workout. It was not going well at all. This is where a training partner would help - it sure was easy to quit today, and I could have benefitted from sticking it out even with some slower splits. On the other hand maybe it means I needed the rest, although I've been just jogging around all week anyway. Cooler weather is on its way, so I'm not worried about the 10k, just wish I could have sharpened up for it a little better.
I took the long way home for my jog of shame and did some sprints along the way. |

| 69F, N 12 mph. 8:18 AP. Amazing, I went out at 9am and it was still in the 60s. Looking at mid-50s tomorrow for a 20-miler - finally. I'm thinking of making it a big workout since I punted the whole week, but don't want to mess with my 10K six days later. Maybe something moderate at the end. |
