Too Darn Hot!

This week's workouts are all jumbled up for various reasons so today was going to be a long 50 minute run with 7/1 run/walk intervals. That doesn't sound too bad, unless you miss-judge the temperature and try it in 90+ degree heat. I swear when I looked at the weather station the temperature was dropping, but I was wrong.

Needless to say, I didn't get much running done. After the second set I was pooped. I managed to run in little spurts after that but it ended up mostly being a walk in the heat. I was too impatient and didn't want to wait until this evening to run. Last time I did an evening run I had major leg cramps in both legs in the middle of the night. Whether that was a factor in the cramps or not I don't know, but why risk it.

Tomorrow is my last day at work for the summer and most likely the first day of harvest. That means even though it's a rest day from training I won't be doing much resting. At least from now on I can run in the morning when it's cool. Ahhhhhh.
