4 Noon miles from the Y. Nice day out, a bit warm. 80F 39% humidity. Nice to get some hotter miles in as in past years I've almost exclusively run in the cool mornings (it was 59F this morning).

8 miles in a warm morning for Billings, 64-70F during this run, very little breeze to speak of. I was soaked afterwards. Decent run. Speeds weren't great, but consistent effort on the ups, a bit strained on the flat and downhill. Took me a while to cool down but having the A/C cranked in the truck while driving my son to the High School helped.

17 very tough miles at scout camp this morning. Woke at 5:30, started at 5:59. Same 4 mile route as yesterday then planned to go 4 on a certain road but it was all uphill so turned around after 1 mile, then the other direction was all downhill so turned around after 1 mile that way. Legs beat at this point, planned to call it at 12 or 13 but I just kept running. This was a big victory in my training, very pleased even though the paces were slow with lots of walk breaks. 7500 feet elevation, lots of up.
