Stayed up too late which made getting up early a challenge.  Today was tempo run and the lead group headed out fast.  I hung with the second group and although the pace is not that fast, it is a challenge in this heat.  It took all my mental strength not to cut the run short at 4 when there is a chance to turn right and had back to the fitness center.  Kept up through about mile 3.5 and then lagged a bit.  I’m pleased with the run, although I’m still worn out.  Some friends are planning on doing the Flying Monkey which could give me another marathon this year.  It should be cooler by November so I might be able to get some October training runs in.  We’ll see.
