Good Morning

Silly me. I slept in until 7:30 and waited for the sun to be high in the sky before heading out for a 6 mile run around the block almost entirely in full sun! It was hot, hot, hot. But I kept chugging along. Walked what I though was quite a lot in the last 2 miles but still got it done in 1.5.33. I was surprised and thought for sure it would have been more time than that. But I can't do that any more. I'm not good in the heat. So if I want to do anything over 3-4 miles I have to get up earlier to beat the heat. Anyway, I did it. Then I did the push ups and sit ups in my cool basement.

I bet that cool basement felt good! Yeah, summer running leaves me torn. I adore sleeping in. I adore lazy mornings. I despise running in crazy heat! Talk about heat stroke just waiting to happen!

Great time though! The plus side is that you are getting solid training for warm weather races.
