Felt sloggish running today. Fog wasn't as bad, but it was still foggy & humid. The temp was a little lower (62 predicted) and when I caught a breeze, it felt good.
Avg pace was 8:44. Not as good as my same intended effort last Thursday, and there was no way I was pulling a sub 8 out of my pocket for the last mile either. I didn't have a real recovery run yesterday due to no run Tuesday, and I wonder if that made any difference in my struggle today. There's so many variables, it's hard to know for sure.
Maybe I'll get in a couple slow easy miles after work today. It's supposed to be 92o outside today, so I'm going to have to see what the heat/humidity tolerance level is by that time of the day. Some days, I have zero tolerance for any weather...it might just be one of those days.
Attempting a 20 miler on Saturday. Hope the weather/humidity cooperates with us. We may start out before daylight to try and beat some of the heat.
Best part of the morning run: one word- honeysuckle.................it smells so great!
hot, but not as humid after work...2 miles: 1.75 bleachers and 1/4 of an easy cool down lap. |
