Distance Completed: 6 miles
Time: Started at 6:00am, took 1 hr, 12 minutes
J.W. and I met to get this run done and over with. Too much going on today. I did ok and kept to pace, which is surprising given the humidity. I did walk 2x for some of the steeper hills on Burke Centre Parkway.
Anything I'd do different? No. Everything was fine with the run; I just can't move in this humidity. It takes all my will power to keep going. It's hard to breathe. I can't wait for the cooler weather to kick in. It's the end of September, it's about time.
Mid-week runs - ran 5 miles on Tuesday, ran 4 miles on Thursday; both on the treadmill at the gym. It was good. Did a 4.5 mile hike on the Billy Goat Trail on Sunday. So my mileage was a bit higher than usual.
