Abbreviated Intervals

This was the day for one of my favorite runs, the 2x800 sprint intervals. I woke up this morning in Austin with a little congestion, and when I got home late morning I thought a good run would help clear it up somewhat. The bad news was that the temperature was much warmer today. I ran the first interval at about a 6:30 pace, but a little over a mile later I started the second one feeling the effects of the sun. I ran 400 meters and decided that was plenty. I walked a couple of times over the rest of the outing but still got in my 6 miles. A little disappointing, and all I've wanted to do since then was to go to bed. Just a little longer...
