- run 45:50, 8.59 km
T+DI 163 but felt worse than sunday and monday. possibly because i did a much more urban route, toward downtown instead of away and through the parks. also i ran like 20s/km faster, by accident.

i'm finding that if i concentrate on keeping pace and breathing relaxed, i can make it work. high heat and humidity make my heart rate rise much more rapidly and come down more slowly, so keeping it from spiking is the priority.

- run 41:17, 8.01 km
T+DI 173, highest ever since i started recording it. just checked and i think the previous high was 170, last summer when i ran 18 km at 5:39 pace and got heat exhaustion. much easier run today despite being 30s/km faster.

ETA: the humidity pace adjuster chart i found last year suggests this should have been equivalent to ~4:45 pace in perfect conditions. that seems impossibly quick, my easy runs in the winter were at best 8-10s slower than that. shouldn't put too much stock in such charts, i suppose.

- run 1:15:44, 13.56 km
T+DI 167*, about as high as it's ever been during a run since i started keeping tabs on it. but managed to go out easy and keep pace relaxed (5:35 average) and consequently this was not a struggle.

*88/31 air temp, dew point 79/26; humidity 83% (!).

EDIT: put mile distance in by mistake. replaced with km.

yo adarq if you're digging that sahelian guitar stuff, may i suggest this new song by mdou moctar?

on a related (guitar) note, bill frisell is my god now. as a kind of late beginner/early intermediate guitarist, the dude's playing bewilders me. it seems way farther away than being able to play really fast, complicated jazz guitar lines. which, to be clear, i also very much can't do yet. but his touch is just...like, how is he doing that?

- run 56:07, 10.00 km
hot and humid. also quite a bit of climbing on this route, around 83-84 feet per mile and the first 15 minutes or so is basically straight uphill. stopped at exactly 10k and walked the final few hundred meters home to cool down a bit.

at least none of us is in the pacific northwest, where almost 500 people have died in an absolutely epic heat wave. portland, oregon and las vegas now have the same all-time high temperature: 117/47.2. it was 36+ here yesterday but then poured rain and it's supposed to be nicer over the weekend.

actually, come to think of it, avishek lived in seattle the last i heard of him. hope he's keeping cool enough.

- run 46:32, 8.68 km
less climbing than yesterday and did a better job keeping pace even. still a negative split but didn't have to walk, despite the conditions being almost the same as yesterday, and even managed a very wee little kick at the end. meant to go a little farther but the mall is blocked off for the fireworks until next week and i couldn't be bothered trying to find my way around all the fencing. it's okay. just glad i got out there.

the woman i went out with on friday night is a runner. texting with her this morning and i found out she is roughly as fast as i am, which is to say, pretty fast for an amateur woman. may be a running date in my future, lol.

i've been neglecting the forum for a little while, always a pleasure to catch up on kf's journal and feel terrible about my own lack of discipline. we stan a legend.

- run 1:01:42, 10.45 km
took a couple of walking breaks in kms 9 and 10. absolutely gnarly outside, T+DI 164 (91/33 degrees and dew point 73). and i was a little dehydrated to start, i think.
