Running in temps above 60 is tough; above 70 even tougher. Ran outside at lunch today, 75-78F with low 30% humidity. My legs are tired from Saturday's longest-run-in-351 days, and combined with the heat I plodded along, walking a couple times. Legs finally warmed up for the last mile.

Hot TM run at the Y after lunchtime. 90 outside, probably 75+ inside. Tired legs + heat = walked a lot and quit 2 miles short of my plan. I'm old.

I don't often run in the heat, but I did today. Temps between 85-88 during the run, but a "dry heat" with b/t 37-27% humidity. Stuck to the shade as much as possible, which was quite a lot, and had a handheld full of ice water. Overall, a good run. Not great, but better than yesterday's TM effort.

More heat training at lunchtime, 79-83F but thankfully a decent breeze. Watch went freaky again, so stopped at .18 miles and reset the watch (I was not running a 7:01 pace). Ran up to the rims and back, solid effort. Legs felt quite rested, but for a good SGM I need to really up the mileage over the summer so a 16 mile run doesn't destroy me for days.

10 miles up my normal route. Cooler than other days but still warm, sweat covered the singlet when finished.
