Eight mile loop with 2300 East, Foothill-500 South, Guardsman, 1500 East, Sugarhouse Loop, 2100 South as the borders. I do this run often and start at various points due to its varying grade. Today, started at 1700 S and 2300 E and went counterclockwise.

Felt slow at first but then I felt good and decided to make it into a tempo/threshold run of sorts. Miles 7:56, 7:36, 6:38, 6:39, 6:46, 7:08, 7:20, 8:08. The first and last mile were warm-up/cool-down but also the steepest miles. 75-77 degrees so I was feeling the heat by the end but legs felt fresh and right calf soreness that appeared last week has disappeared.

In Houston. Ran at 7:30 and it was 78 degrees with 82% humidity. No experience in such weather. Ran easy miles from the Four Seasons to Memorial Park and back. Average 8:10. Laboring a bit by the end and shirt soaked which never happens.

Might do my 10 mile workout tomorrow on the treadmill to get in the fast miles...

Tried the treadmill at the Four Seasons but it was blustery in there as well. I decided to cut the workout in half and have a pleasant morning before a long day in a deposition. Ran 15 minutes at 6:29 pace and total pace of 7:07.

Humid weather makes you think you're hot and tired but once I got off the treadmill, I felt fresh and was not breathing hard.

This was supposed to be an off day, but I tried to finish yesterday's workout on the treadmill at work. It was going fine when I got some pain in my right nee and shins. The right knee is the one I am afraid could be problematic. Hope its not the new shoes.

Ran 1 mile warm-up, 2.3 miles @ 6:30 and a short cool down.
