Heat acclimation run.
This was my first afternoon run outside since summer has really hit. If you’ve ever been in Texas near the first of June you will understand just how uncomfortable this can be. I started my run at 1 pm. It was about 82-85 degrees and 80-90% humidity (as it was threatening to rain the entire time).
Mile 1 – 9:29
Mile 2 – 9:37
Mile 3 – 9:36
Mile 4 – 9:49
Mile 5 – 9:11
Mile 6 – 9:25
Average pace – 9:31 min per mile
Can you see where I started getting impatient for the run to be finished?
