Distance: 4 miles

Pace: 8:48 min/mi
Comments: Some pretty heavy rainstorms trundled through this morning, postponing today's run. I tried to get out reasonably early but it was already sweltering when I got going. And the sun was full on as well.
The result was something of a slog although I made it a point to not look at the pace the whole way. Just worked on keeping my feet moving and fatigue at bay. Things went reasonably well to the last mile and it's little uphill.
Still, a sub-9 minute pace with this kind of humid heat is a pretty good effort.
