Day 2 of heat resilience training. Same 4 loops as yesterday, I really wanted to do 1 fast loop but my body just can't seem to go any faster in this heat.  I really hope St. George is cold this year cause if it's hot I'm toast.  I at least was smart enough to stash a water bottle in the bushes this morning so I could hydrate every 2.5 miles, that helped.  I finished off by running to Walgreens and buying a litter of cold water, a Gaterade, and a Strawberry Quick.  All 3 were gone by the time I got back to my room.

10 miles in 1:09:27  6:57 avg pace.  2 minutes faster than yesterday.

Glad you found somewhere nice to run. I shouldn't be complaining about the 70 degree start I had at 5am this morning.

Thanks Chad, It's not the most Scenic route in the World but at 4:30 in the morning I guess it doesn't really matter.

It was definitely warm this morning for my run, but I will not complain! Maybe you could train for badwater with temps like that :)

nice running, rob. it can definitely be difficult to get it going in the heat, but i think you are managing just fine.
