PM – 3.25 miles
It’s officially the last day of August and the end of the best month out of the year! Okay, I’m biased but August really is the best month. But time to say goodbye to it and goodbye to the GVRAT that I did not officially finish this year (for the first time) but I’ve made peace with it and I have no regrets. Guess I’ll be finishing it in overtime.
As for the weekend temperatures, I see a slight cool down to 96F on Saturday, but it is what it is. If I can get outside early, I might be able to finish before the high heat really kicks in.
I’m just happy I got my 9 miles that were on the plan today. I knew I was needing to tweak this longer midweek run so I completed a double today. But my legs are feeling a little more tired after this second run. Pfft, they were tired before I even started the first run. I see 5 on the menu for tomorrow, but I’ll take whatever my tired legs will give me.
August miles: 164.78
