Dropping like flies!

Geeeezzzz, musta been something in the "air" last night. Seemed like everyone was feeling a little flat or sore for one reason or another.
Let me stress once more.....please take it easy on your easy days. This is one way to assure that you will be able to hit it hard when you are supposed to. Everyone needs the dynamics of easy/hard. Without the proper recovery you become stale, overtrained, and INJURED. Don't get caught in the trap of training in the rut of mediocrity.

It wasn't what was in the air, but the air itself. My car theremometer still read 86 F when I left at 7:15 pm. At least for me, there was a very noticable temperature factor last night. My heart rates were 10-12 bpm above where they have been for similar pace running in cooler weather and I suffered melt-down after my 4th repeat with all the symptoms of dehydration - high heart rate, sticky connective tissue, tightness, the whole ball of wax.

Thankfully we're supposed to get a little cooler/dryer air next week.
