Note to self..do not start long runs at 7:30am in the summer. Yes, I paid the price for starting a bit late this morning. By the end it was brutally hot. As such the pace was very slow, but I felt in control, and I didn't get heat stroke etc. There will be other runs to pick up the speed!
Nice and humid this morning….just the way I don’t like it ;o).Fartlek was the order of business today.Warm up then 10 x 2 minutes fast, 1 minute easy.Average pace for the fast part was 6:34.Felt good.
Its Texas, its summer...it was warm ;o). The run was almost exclusively on the trail today except for a short stretch along the sidewalk. Felt good despite the conditions. Average pace was 8:01 so moving in the right direction pace wise. Hopefully the forthcoming hill and speed work will help knock a few more seconds off too.
