Relief!!

 Mercy!! What a difference 20 degrees can make! It rained here and I was able to get out while it was still raining lightly. I noticed extraordinary strength and stamina as I did a 45 minute hill workout. I did 19XShort Hill (1/10th mile long) my times averaged faster than normal, and I am not nearly as spent as I have been after these heat runs....this is why I am such a believer in Summer! It makes you strong!!
  The rain was much needed, too. I hope to run 55 minutes tomorrow and take Friday off for the golf outing. Then a road interval training session on Saturday which will prob be 9X1 minute @ HM pace. So far 15.66 miles logged this week. Hope you are well! Peace!

Excellent!! Definitely makes a big difference when it cools down some!! Fingers crossed it stays cool for awhile!

      This is the most wonderful time of year! I love the heat and humidity! Yet I still get out earlier due to my advanced age! 4.4 miles! ...
