Best I could get in before heading on vacation. Long drive Friday. I'll actually take a few days off running. I always squeeze in things, but I think this time I'll take at least a few days off and hit it hard when I'm back home.

 Back home and running. While in Orlando I took running easy on logging 20 some miles in the Florida heat/humidity. Tom, that stuff is not fun. I also walked over 40 miles for the week (did not log these, that would be silly), and my legs are thanking me for not pushing while on vacation so we could enjoy Universal. 

AM- Back at the grind. 68º 94% warm, but doable. Progressive, maybe more later.

AM- 77º Sunny, humid and hot. Been a long week of work and tough getting runs in properly. Today was just a wet mess from heat. If Allie and Tom are in the dishwasher then this was the washing machine. 15 steady miles. Could not muster the desire for any true speed as the sun was draining.

Long day of work on the road. Did not have much time, but found some tough yet scenic trails. Disappointed in not getting more miles, but the 6 we quality on tough trails.

70º/90% and sunny. Basic base run in the wet air. Humdity was killer again. I wonder why I wash my running clothes. I mean a 1/4 mile in and poof they are wet with sweat. Last mile fast to end it. We have a cool front coming through, should have several days of cooler weather.
