That Was Brutal

I'd hoped to run earlier in the day but my schedule didn't permit it, so I ended up going out about 4 p.m. when the the temperature was in the low 90s and the heat index way over 100 due to the humidity. We had thunderstorms roll through last night and today we paid for it with the heat index. As I told The Wife on my way out the door, if you waited to run in Texas until it was cool, you'd never run. I got in my 6 miles, with plenty of walking along the way, particularly in the last half where I thought it best to walk a little every half mile. The plan on Saturday is to run earlier. It might not mean lower humidity, but lower temperatures sure would help.
