It was too hot for what I tried but I realized it before I hurt myself and cut it short. It was 90°F and real feel of 94°F. I meant to get to a shaded rail trail but ended up in full sun on a slightly rolling hilly road.

2 mile warm up, 4 miles at sub threshold, and a 2 mile cool down. I intended on 6 sub threshold but I called it at 4 and just started my cool down. My heart rate didn't really fall so I think I called it right in time.

I'll plan better next time.

Happy belated Bastille Day. I figured it out at 11:30 last night when we were awakened by fireworks.

9 miles steady as the heat built up. I started just past 7 on a shaded bike path and after a warm up held steady at 8:00-8:05 pace, that was okay for an hour and then it started to get to me so I eased up for the last 2 miles while my heart rate crept up. One more day of mid-90s, then it eases up a few degrees before returning to normal next week.
