Personal:

Pride necessarily sprouts and grows; a pride that can only come from relentless kneading of unwilling flesh, painful months of grinding and burning away all that is heavy, all that is strength-sapping and useless to the body as a projectile. --John L. Parker, Jr., runner/author

I got up in some good speed work late this afternoon, and despite the 90 degree heat, I felt like it was exactly what I needed to recharge my batteries.  Today's workout included the following:  

3 Miles at 6:35/mile;

4X400m at 79, 76, 79, and 79 seconds respectively;

3X800m at 2:46, 2:55, and 2:56 respectively; and

800m easy jog to cool down.  

Including 200m walk/jog after each quarter, and 400m walk/jog between 800's, I ran 7 total miles.

Nice job. I have to admit that I don't miss my 25 years of living in Florida and South Carolina as far as training in the summer goes. When when it gets up to 100 here it's still about 60 in the AM and 15% humidity. I run on mountain trails in July when it's in the 40s.

The tables are turned during the winter though.
