Notes
Temp 83 (87) Wind 9 mph. Humidity 65% Dew Point 70°. Warmed a couple of degrees short time I was out.
Tune-Up Run. Sluggish, stiff, and achy in spots this morning. Will be fine by race time...always am. Started day with HS PT and core exercises during short lift session (arms). 20:00 minutes of jogging. Stopped to hit a couple of sips of water and toss the shirt before starting striders. Did all three into the wind to simulate tomorrow's finish. Top speeds 5:3Xs / 5:2Xs / 5:2Xs. Felt very smooth. Recovery mow will top off the day.
Race start time forecast is 89° with 92° heat index. Winds from the south at 9 mph. Will be running south last 1.1 miles of 5K and for the entire 1 mile. Going to get damn warm damn quick. No illusions of world records or PRs. Plan will be to run smart, tactical, and finish as high as possible overall.
