Wow, this heat! Was hoping to end up calling this noon 5-miler in the heat a tempo run, just because of the heat, but at mile 3 I started getting some stomach cramps that pretty much determined tha... read more

Uphill climb on the bike, yesterday evening. Teeny bit of cardio/intervals for me; rather large portion of sweat.

alright 13.1 mi 02:32 11:36 pace
Long, flat run in uncomfortable heat & humidity, though I picked a mostly shaded trail, drank a whole Camelbak full of water, took on some Clif Shot Bloks, and stopped to walk every time my HR ... read more

Nice work! Can't hurt to drink too much for a 2:30 run, not enough time to get into trouble. Sure was a hot one.

Awesome miles, Arah! Yeah, it looks like this weather pattern will persist until at least Thursday. Ugh!

Way to go, Arah! Every mile was sub-8:15, and way under too!! I heard that with 90 degree temps and high humidity the heat index will be well into the 100s. UGH! :)

Thanks! And, yikes, about the heat index. I have a long run to do on Sunday, 10-12 miles. Maybe I'll start it at 4am?

I know the Ohio Street Hill all too well; I've never thought of doing it as a cool-down!

Fun trail run with a larger group of SISU's. Outran the skeeters. I may pay for this, when I try and do mile repeats on Friday morning.

I usually find a longer route home, to get a better workout, but was short on time yesterday. Sometimes biking the shortest route home (the route I take in the car) is enjoyable because it seems to... read more
