Comments: The plan was to put in a four miler yesterday but the daylong deluge put paid to that. So the backup plan was to add a bit to today's long run. I did a slightly longer circuit and got pretty dang close to eight miles (added the last fifth to make it even).
It was a little bit warm and a lot humid on this one. Things were fine up to the last two miles when the hills and the sun conspired against me. It never got brutal but I was pretty sweaty and whooped at the end.
Of course my heart rate never got in Zone 5 so who the hell knows at this point?
