Exercise Type: Run
Weather: Mid-80s, high dewpoint, sunny
Comments:
My shorts were so wet with sweat after this run, they were literally dripping while I was just standing there. Temps in the low-to-mid 80s with a dewpoint in the upper-60s made for a steamy run. Got to run with Laura W. and Marc W. though so that made this run infinitely better.
Started off with a 2.3-mile warmup and then did 6 miles at tempo pace on the Prairie Path. I was feeling pretty good through 4 miles, but the heat started getting to me after that point. Fortunately for me, Woody was feeling strong and he pulled us through the end of the workout. Cooled down for a mile afterward. Overall I'm happy with the effort; these type of conditions are my Kryptonite when it comes to running and I managed to hang on. Because I went longer than I planned today I'll probably shorten things up tomorrow. Splits below, gonna sit in the A/C for awhile.
