July 5 2012, 4 Hard Hot Miles

i had done 19 of my last 20 scheduled runs as of saturday. however, monday i was very busy and the way things went i did not get to run monday. tuesday and wednesday because of various things i was too tired to run. today i took off owrk a little early and got some rest then went out for a run. when i left the house it was 88 degrees with 98 percent humidity. the heat index wass 97. i could tell. the run was my toughest 4 miler of the year. i finished in 41:24, a pace of 10:21. it felt like it took every ounce of energy i had. i don't feel very good right now either. going to bed.
