Hot Sunday Run…and I don’t mean me!

Temp 88 with vey high humidity. The weather called for TStorms later in the day so I though I could get a run in. I took my new hill course and added an extra hill for about an extra 1.5 miles.

I started out OK knowing my pace would be slower due to the heat. Man was it ever humid! I had many stops along the way and seriously considered calling for a ride home. I was out of energy and my legs and feet were termorarily sore during and after the run. I brought about 20 oz of water which helped.

I was a taxing run/walk but it’s the summer so you have to deal with it.

Avg Speed 4.8 mph, Max Speed 12.0 mph. Shoes Brooks Beast with Orange Superfeet inserts.
