Buttsweat Towel© season has begun

77F, 84%.  Garmin was out of batteries but I'm pretty sure this was slow.  This little heat wave will last through Wednesday, so my workouts will be Thursday and Sunday next week.  Somehow gained 3.4 lbs on Saturday; I wish I could say I was surprised as to how that happened.

72F, 98%.  7:56 AP.  Sticky slog/swim, slowly suffocating.  Sigh.

73F, 94%.  7:54 AP.  Just biding my time until it cools off again (soon...).  It looks like Thursday will be better than Wednesday, so I'll probably have one more easy day before hitting the track.

I think I got hit by a flying bat while running under a bridge this morning.  I think my heart stopped for a second or two.  I thought those things had sonar or something...

57F, steady rain.  7:25 AP.  Something about a nice cool rain makes the legs wake up.  Tried to show some restraint since I'm hitting the track tomorrow.  Today would have been a good track day but lane 1 always seems to be underwater at that track every time it rains.

55F, 6:56 AP.  On the agenda was 7 x (3 min on / 1 min off) with the "on" portion @ 10k pace.  So I did 7 x 800m with 200m easy between reps.  Averaged 2:58.6.  I had a very tight range with no rep varying more than 1 sec from the average.  Good, tough workout; it feels like there is no rest as that 200m goes by really quick!  I'm guessing that pace is faster than I could actually run a 10k right now, but the stimulus was great.  The last 2 reps took twice the effort to keep cranking out 90 sec laps.

This morning I did a "boot camp" at work from 4-7 am.  That was a dumb decision.

can't move - ahhhh that was dumb.  I'm supposed to be doing a workout tomorrow and the weather will be perfect.  It's like post-marathon soreness, but all over the body instead of concentrated in the running muscles.  Maybe I'll still be able to run - might try to jog tonight.  Seems doubtful though.
