PM: easy 8 mi. in the drizzling rain - about 8:45 pace

| Double Day today
AM: 2mi. WU, 5mi. MP - 6:30, 24,24,29,29, 2mi. CD
9mi. total - 1:04:45
PM: 5x1mi. LT scheduled This didn't happen - I felt aerobically taxed from the start of the first mile. 1mi. (6:08) / 2min. rec. / 0.75mi. (4:45) / 2min. rec / 0.5 mi. (3:12) ... and I was toast at this point. Jogged for 10 minutes and felt like I was gasping for air still. 2x3min. "efforts" that were barely MP.
I think humidity is to blame... yeah, that's it. And the sun was in my eyes.
8.75 mi. total - 1:07:23

| 4am: 2nd of back to to back long runs back into work. Dark the whole way, but still about 75 degrees and very humid. Headlamp, and white shirt causing some nipple bleeding made for some character building. Legs were pretty tired from yesterday afternoon's run in the heat.

| AM: Similar to Last Saturday's workout, but added one more 3mile AT effort. jogged over to race across town and did some strides/pickups when it got closer to race time. local 5k again - I've run this one the last couple years. No ringers showed up today, so after the usual silliness in the first half mile thinned out, I was solo. Humidit and last 2 days really took their toll in the last mile, but, I was happy that I lasted that long - 5:44, 5:44, 5:55, 0:35 - 17:58 - 5k. Cooled off with a wonderful water bottle poured over the head shower, got a sip, and ran the course again at 5k @ AT - 20:17. Got some cookies and nanas from the finish line collected my winnings :), and on with the rest of the workout. 2x3mi. AT with a 3 min. rec. jog - 20:00 & 20:30.
18.3 mi. total - 2:10:15 total moving time
