It is Labor Day and so I slept in and got started a little late this morning.  Luckily the weather cooperated and it was not too hot.  It was 86 degrees when I started and I can handle that.  I started with a bike ride and my legs were a little tired still from the run on Saturday, but after about 5 miles they settled in nice and I felt good.

After the bike I did a 4 mile run, keeping things nice and easy.  I am really working on getting my legs use to the transition from the bike to the run.  This will be important for me come November when I do the half ironman.

Nice run and swim this morning.  Swam in the lake and it was nice and calm.  It's amazing how nice it feels when it is only 85 degrees outside.

Bike ride with 4 laps around the island and a few little areas to give me a little more than usual.  It was cooler this morning, but very humid.  I'll take it though.

I thought it was getting cooler in the moring, but this morning was pretty warm and VERY humid.  It was 88 degrees outside and 50% humidity making it feel like 91.  I ran 8 miles followed by a 20 minute pool swim followed by a 2.5 mile run home.  My stomach hurt pretty bad this morning so it was a rough run.

40 mile ride with Rhett.  We pushed pretty hard at the end and it felt like we had worked hard.

I am officially OVER the heat.  At 6 this morning it was 87 degrees and at 6:50 when I started my run it was 88 degrees.  When it finished it was 97! 

My run was nice and easy.  I tried to keep my heart rate between 135 and 145 and not do too much because it was so hot.  I ran out of water by mile 14 so I stopped at the gas station and bought some water.  I filled one of my bottles with ice and by the time I got home that water was warm.  I am hoping the weather forcast is right and we get a some relief from the heat here soon.
