Steady State w/BE at Hefner; 9 miles in 6:44 OA but did stop at all water fountains; counterclockwise; stormy day; mid 70s, N12-20mph, humid, sunny, hot....for 1st 6-7 miles; then clouds blocked sun; but N wind picked up as headed back to cars.  Overall pleased with effort.  Also ran this in trainers which typically don't do.  Only felt right ankle when pushing hard into wind; so def getting better (had been using CEP brace).

Ran with BE at Hefner; Scott Smith ran with us for about 3 miles as he was doing 20 from Olverholser.  We picked it up on a few miles; my breathing capacity is poor right now from allergies and sinus infection; also gained weight due to the fatigue and lack of being able to run; kind of frustrating.

Got out too late and not heat adapted; but needed the sleep-in from stressful week.  Started of 1st loop with Court then ran on my own.  Didn't want to push effort just to run easy as it heated up fast and full sun/windy.  

PM spin of 57:40

Solo at Hefner; got out too late and paid for it with jacked heart rate and difficulty staying motivated in the heat.  Did run 6 miles Steady State (6:53 avg) but had too stop often for water fountains and water I was carrying.  But now isn't a time I have to be at any peak performance level, so just keeping some SS in my running will allow it all to come together later.  Talked to JH who told me he ran a 5:29 mile during hot after-work training.  Talked with Byron who told me he forwarded the GT article to the OKC Marathon Race Director.  Lots of activity at the lake on this Memorial Day.
