Another Day, Another Hot Run

Today's 6-miler was late in the afternoon - well, okay, it was actually at dinnertime. I got out after 5:30 p.m. and returned a little before 6:45. The temperature was 98 degrees with a heat index of 105, but once again it wasn't so bad when you factor in shade and walking every mile. I thought about running a different route, but that would involve more hills and at this point in the summer I'm just trying to maintain. My new shoes came in today (they were scheduled for tomorrow) and that was a nice treat. They felt good.
