felt pretty good -first couple were at 7:25 then a couple 7:10s, then a 6:45 or 6:50.  Then I chilled it out a bit. It was dark and I was overheated.  

It was nice to get out again after missing a bunch of days.

I'm wanting to do an 8 hour race called Hot 2 Trot in August.  So I need to get in some HOT miles.  Went out mid-day today to get in a few.  My computer says it is 95, so I cooked slightly.  It went OK until about the last 1.5.  I had to run walk it unto the house.    

4.4 miles -  about 7:45 ave pace

It is the last night of track nights today but with this heat and with my 4 mile race on Saturday I think I'll just do 8 or so tonight.

storm front came through and cooled it a bit I think - a little windy. not too bad - around 85 I think just took it easy and tried not to crash - got a little hungry and drained feeling in the middle but that is something to get through mentally.

Don't have much of a week going and next week isn't going to be better.  I have next week off and will drive my kids up to PA to se my family and then to Hershey for the Chocolate tour and then Philly to see Independance Hall and the Liberty Bell.  I'm looking forward to it but will probably not get too many miles in there...
