Well, the good is that I did what I hoped I&#8217;d do today to make up for some loss: I did 10.56 miles.  The bad is the heat.  It is slowing me down and wearing me down a bit.  I ran in weather between 83-84 degrees, and with a humidity somewhere around 50%.  For some reason, it is feeling more humid today than it&#8217;s reading.  I had a little bit of relief in the form of cloudcover, which obscured the sun for about half of my run, and with the shade of trees I only had direct sun for maybe 1\/4 of my run.  Not bad.  I pulled off 8:02s with water breaks and the occasional time Garmin wouldn&#8217;t stop.  Here are my stats:<br \/>\n<iframe width='465' height='548' frameborder='0' src='http:\/\/connect.garmin.com:80\/activity\/embed\/40173616'><\/iframe><br \/>\nAs for injuries, my legs felt good after yesterday&#8217;s run, and I only had that stabbing feeling in my left ankle once.  It happened about a mile and a half in, and it lingered for a few footfalls but was gone.  STILL it is behaving like this, over a year later!  Such a strange injury!<\/p>\n<p>Other than that, I was just so tired during this run.  I couldn&#8217;t motivate myself to go much faster, I couldn&#8217;t lift my head, I just plodded along.  I stopped for water pretty often, and had a PowerGel (x1 caffeine) about 8 miles in.  It doesn&#8217;t feel as if it does much, but maybe it gives me just that little bit.  I lost about 5 lbs. again today, getting me back down to 169 lbs. after I finished (from about 174 lbs. this morning).  I feel a bit thinner after today&#8217;s run, or maybe the word is &#8220;wasted.&#8221;  I need to get some muscle back on me, but I&#8217;m so drained from this heat running! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Argh.
