Less humid.

Pleasantly surprised to find the air much drier this morning. It is still hot, but less humidity makes it more tolerable. Today was my track workout. I was at the track nice and early planning on doing 8 x 600/400. I broke it into two sets with an 800 jog in between. I got through the first 4 pretty well, but after number 5 I decided to increase the rest interval to 600 instead of 400. When it's hot like this, it's good to be flexible with your expectations. I probably could have pushed through the last 4 with only 400 recovery, but I likely would have slowed. Instead, by increasing the rest I was able to keep hitting my target pace of sub 2 minutes. Average pace for all 8 was 1:59. With warm up and cool down 9 for the day, running time @ 69 minutes.
