Got into Dallas and to my sisters very late last night. Didnt get to bed til well after midnight and I knew I had to get up early and get out running because the LOW here is 78-79 degrees and humid. Was worried that i would be way to tired to get up and get going and i didnt want to have to run on the treadmill. I didnt sleep very well and woke up before 7am here, got ready and headed out. HOT, HUMID and WINDY! Wanted to just run 5 out and 5 back, but the road i went out  on hit a freeway intersection about mile 2.5, so I started turning and running out and then would head back to the same road i started on. Its always fun to run in new areas! Legs were DEAD today!!!! (combination of long run yesterday and little sleep). I will have to go a little eaIrlier tomorrow to try to beat the heat. I think I lost a gallon of sweat! Good preparation for WBR for when I am running in the heat of the day! avg pace 8:04

Great job getting out there in the humidity. It's hard to run well when travelling but you did awesome today. Keep it up.

Great job! Glad you made it safe. Always hard to run when you do not know the lay of the land. Have a great trip!

Glad you made it safely to Texas. Have a wonderful time with Mindy. Hopefully we'll get a chance to see you when you come up for the WBR.
