Weather - Sunny, 78 degrees and the humidity was ridiculously high.
Clothing - Black running shorts (longer, biker style), Short sleeve tech shirt (rockstar), fuel belt
Nutrition - Ate a banana before. During the run: (2) 8 oz powerade, (1) 8oz water
Route - Went 2 miles down Roberts and 2 miles back. Parked the car by the Walmart, near Burke Centre Parkway and Roberts..
Distance Completed: 4 miles
Time: Started at 6:30am, took 47 minutes, 21 seconds
J.W., T, and I met at 6:30am to do the 4 miles we had scheduled. We mixed it up a bit and did a hilly route to get used to running on something other than a flat surface. Roberts is hilly!
Anything I'd do different? No. I have to say that given the extreme heat, this run went as well as could've been expected. While 4 miles doesn't seem like a lot, throw in a hills and heat and I was dying. I am so looking forward to cooler weather.
Mid-week runs - ran 5 miles on Tuesday, ran 4 miles on Thursday; both on the treadmill at the gym. Was happy how I am managing to pick up my pace a little.
