Hi,
I developed some kind of intermittent pain in my right ankle overnight. I am not sure if it was the shoes I took for a test drive, the cross country style terrain (although I've run out there a half-dozen times without issue), or just a stupid ache.
In any event, I am headed out for a slog. The plan is for 6...
What are you up to today?
You ran fast with new shoes... that may be it.
SRD.
The stupid heat has come back yesterday and will stay around for a few more days, tomorrow will be the worse, from what the weather forecast say. I might move my MP workout to Friday if the forecast is cooler.
No more marathons

Yep - it's a comfortable 59 right now, but at noon when I'll run it will be 82 and a dew point of 59 - ugh.
Plan calls for 6 X 400 @ 5K pace with a 100 rest between. That rest might involve some walking and a bit of crying.

That was pretty much the workout I did last night. While physically tough, mentally, I found myself questioning what the hell was I doing. lol

Good morning!
I ran 8.1 in the dark with it 75F and 90% humidity. The run was very slow, but I reached my goal and added 0.1 miles just to spite the heat.
I hope everyone has a great day!

'Morning!! Today is a bike day, though it's supposed to rain all day so I may have to hop on the spin bike. My legs are a little tired from my tempo run yesterday. I'm looking forward to more of those.

Bluesky, that will be hard in the heat. s'ok to cry.
LRB, I hope your ankle doesn't give you any trouble today.
I'm back from the Reno/Tahoe jaunt and am finally over the altitude headache. There is no oxygen at 9000ft!
It will be warm here today, but not until afternoon, so I should be good for my run.
Rest day
LRB, I thought the Hanson group wore Brooks?
Morning! I have Pilates and 4 miles tonight.
Spending the next two days in "team building" meetings to try to resolve the BS that is the bitch at work. I have an individual session soon and not sure how to approach it or what to say. What else can I say than get rid of the people that cannot work with the team or teach them how to do so? Cause other than that, it won't work. Such a waste of time.

No run today, probably some chin ups and pull ups and some planking.
It's hot, and it's supposed to be hot and muggy all the way into Friday morning

The pros probably do. There were no pros in attendance last night. lol
I'm not sure how it works, they sell all brands in their stores.

Other than the cling of moist air on my skin, my run was uneventful.
People pay big bucks to train at altitude, I'm not sure that would've gone over well with your honey though.

That time would be better spent dreaming about hitting the lottery. In fact, you should just say that!
