Track work this morning.  It was 82 when I left the house at 5 am and 88 by the time I got home.  I may have to do my last couple weeks of  UVM training on the TM due to the heat.

After a little over 2 miles of warm up, I attempted 6 x 1 mile with 800 m recovery. (6:11, 6:09, 6:09, 6:10, [then I fell apart] 6:47, 6:50).  I finished with a mile cool down.  Those last two miles were brutal, but they were still a bit faster than my current half marathon pace so I'll take them.  I sure hope it is a nice cold day at UVM.

Total run 12 miles

I am tired of running in the heat, so I took my Thursday morning 2 hour run inside to the TM.

2 hours, 16 miles, AP 7:30

Felt pretty good.

The weather gods shown upon me this morning.  The temps dropped 25 degrees from a few days ago to 61 degrees this morning for my final long run in prep for UVM.

20 miles, 2:29:13, AP 7:27

I was at 16.27 at the 2 hour mark which made me happy.  My legs felt good the whole way.  Considering I did a 16 mile 2 hour run 2 days ago, I was extremely happy with this run today.  What a difference 25 degrees makes!

Now it's taper time!!!
