Exercise Type: Run

Weather: 82 degrees

Comments:
Back in Gambier. Had a good run with Dean. We gradually picked up the pace--nothing really special--but we went down to about 6:50 pace for the last 6 miles. The temperature and humidity here make running a TON easier than in the Lawrence heat. I would estimate that it makes 45 seconds to a minute difference per mile. I started to feel very tight and beat-up early on today--at about 11 miles--stretched just a little bit at that point, but I was so extremely tight in my quads especially. Stretched a lot when I finished.
