Dog Day

The dog days of summer are definitely here. Today's temperature was 96 degrees and I decided to trim the mileage accordingly. I ran 4 miles and did my run/walk thing on the hills. I headed straightaway to Shoal Creek since at least there's some shade there. This was one of those runs that felt like a lot of effort. In fact I've had 10-mile runs that were easier than this. Even though the mileage wasn't up to my normal outing it certainly felt like more.
