YHC checks his outdoor thermometer ritually every morning. This was a record temp–81 degrees at 5 am! As a result, we took it slower today and did the 5 mile loop in Windsor Farms, the Foggy Farms 50 all together. It was nice to run this in the light and enjoye the amazing homes and yards. Much of the chatter related to how to train best for running, with Phonics introducing new ideas and methodologies. No one volunteered to set up a blood testing station to see how our body handled the heat today, but my guess was that this was tougher on us than 6 miles at 50 degrees in the same time.
We implemented a walking COT since we were all soaked and needed a bit of extra time to cool down. YHC took us out.
