Dial 911

The "Hot N Hilly" is just three weeks away.

In the middle of my 7 mile run today I did a 5K hill run at 10K pace to get ready. I ran 15 seconds per mile slower than my 5K PR for the year but it was 90 degrees at 3:00 pm today and I was hot before I started the pace run. Fortunately I ended in the shade facing into the breeze and did not have to dial 911 (almost).

Why would anyone do that to himself (or herself) on purpose?

What a difference a day makes!
I ran 6.5 milea at 11:30 today. Clouds formed and a few showers kept me quite cool. It was the easiest run I've had in weeks.

It's not going to be that hot at the race.

I think I am acclimating.
It was sunny and 92 when I ran today. I ran 5 miles and did the last mile at 5K race pace.
