I was so ridiculously tired that I thought I wasn't going to go very far on this ride. I told Lis that I was cutting it to 40 miles because of the lack of sleep and amount of work I had done over the past couple of days. Once I got going I began to feel pretty good and decided I would go a little farther and thought 45-47 would be a nice route to finish on and I ended up at 49.
I went a totally different route than I had planned too. The wind was just brutal today! 27 MPH gusts and a 50 mile ride in this heat wasn't going to make this a joyous occasion. I decided rahter than doing a looping course that I would just head south and into the wind for an additional miles to allow for a decent return with most of it being with a tailwind. This made for a very good decision! I had I not done this I would have likely blown up.

My legs didn't seem to feel like running today. I suppose the lifting while helping Josh get ready to move yesterday has an impact on why my legs feel stiff and slightly sore. It isn't anything really more than muscle soreness but is enough that it make the run slightly uncomfortable.
The heat was not an issue just yet either. The temp is supposed to get to 97 with heat index's in a similar range. I am hoping to get a ride in later today but I have another day with Josh to get he and Margie ready for the trip to Wyoming and whatever time is left will likely be spent visiting. The ride would be a slightly lower intensity too because I would like to get a group ride tomorrow with 3RVS and would hope to get 40-50 miles with them.

This was one of the first very warm weather runs I have had so far this year. I tried from the start to keep my pace down but was fairly unsuccessful from the beginning. My typical "memory" pace seemed to kick in and prohibit me from going easy. I tried for a few miles to get my pace lower and then kind of gave up and that's when it seemed to fall.
I also extended this run out about 2 miles from the scheduled 7 mile run. I decided at about 6.5 miles I would run 8 and then at 8 that I was running 9. My legs felt like they were ready to stop but the reality is probably that it was my mind that wanted to stop. The heat seemed to have a fair effect on me tonight but nothing huge. The humidity is so low that it wasn't miserable to run.
