It is warm out there ladies and gentleman!

I have been wanting to run from our house to my mother-in-law's on a Sunday afternoon for a while now to test back to back long runs. I was just waiting for a Sunday we were planning on dinner there.

I left at 1:49 in the heat of the day with a small race pack filled with ice water. After yesterday's run, I had no pace goal. I didn't look at my watch and turned off auto lap. I had a couple low points and almost pulled the plug with about 3 miles left.

I want to just sit and watch a movie now.

80 miles in the last 7 days.

Hoka Mafate 3 Miles: 19.15

Wow! You are straight crazy running in the heat for that long. Hope you were smarter than me and put on some sunscreen. 80 miles is a serious week! Good work!

No sunscreen, but I wore a hat and had a shirt and my pack on. I think I made it out without getting burned. It felt like I was in a furnace a few times.

I thought that you were taking it easy this week. This is definitely not a start to an easy week. Solid run though, especially with our run the day before. My legs still feel it today.

I am taking it easy this week John. Yesterday was an anomaly. Going to go pretty easy the rest of the week with maybe one day of a couple fast miles. My legs are definitely feeling it.
