- 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.

Back to back 167 and 173 T+DI sessions, legendary!
According to a few articles , when DI > 25C/80F you shouldn't even bother. Others though indicate that if done right ( with performance regulation and proper safety, hydration etc ) , it can be an overall awesome tool for busting PRs in the fall.

- 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.

- run 10.42 km in 53:47
T+DI 154, pretty high but not crazy like the last few runs. felt much easier as well, kicked the last few hundred meters at sub-4:00 pace just because.

still so damn humid that i'm drenched in sweat immediately after showering, even with the a/c on.

- run 52:59, 10.44 km
same route as the other day, but elevation gain given as 99m vs 88m. mmkay. also HR average given as 171, which just doesn't seem possible despite the much quicker pace, because my breathing was normal. so perhaps the watch was having a fit today, who knows. much nicer day today, T+DI 140. still a ways away from ideal but it was easy to cruise along at 5:05.

did no running at all last week. friends in town, nasty weather, wanted to play guitar instead. will recover discipline at some point, probably when the weather sucks less, but have decided not to beat myself up about it for now.

a propos of the weather, it was nice out today, still humid but not as hot as it's been. T+DI 154.

- run 1:30:46, 16.15 km
felt wonderful, very relaxed.

EDIT: also, got my third tattoo yesterday, a cross-section of the bedrock underneath my parents' house, on the inside of my left bicep. looks great, i'm very happy with it.

- run 42:07, 8.05 km
nice outside. T+DI 140. this is the route around me with the most climbing, just about 100 feet per mile, mainly because the second mile is one long steady uphill. did an out-and-back past the cathedral for the first time.

- run 1:03:45, 11.38 km
T+DI 146 but it's all humidity, the temperature was actually pretty nice, mid-70s/~24 degrees.

- stretch

44.5 total km in the last week, most in quite some time. felt good.
