REALLY hot day today for along run but I wanted to get out there and tough it out for at least one long run for mental toughness while being smart about it. Currently 39 degree celcuis with humidity (102 degrees F with humidity for all my friends south of the border)

Ran 10miles around a 1mile loop around a hill drinking at least 500ml of water per 3 loops. Pace was at 8minutes per mile which is slow but ok for the conditions. Finished with an easy 1.5 mile "cool down" on even ground. Wanted to get 12-13 miles total but did not feel it would be of any benefit in the heat. 1 hour 30 minutes total.

2km run: 7:37 - strong opening run. Could have gone harder but didn't want to blow my legs out this early in the race. Still a good time in

20 km bike: 35:01 - very strong bike ride. The course was tow loops around a provincial park. The route was shletered by trees so no wind at all. Very flat, road in good condition and very fast!

5km run: 20:17 - this is the fastest I've done a 5km during a sprint distance triathlon. The legs felt very limber after the bike rise. Had a quick transition and first km was at 3:59. It was a shletered dirt road- no direct sun and flat- very quick again!

Great course and very well run event. Scenic area- would gladly do this event again next year!

Ran 7 loops around a 1 mile hill loop with the Running Miles Club. Felt Strong through most of the run except for the last loop. Still not 100% after the race but energy is better. Finished with 1 mile flat to cool down. Total 1:02 for the run.

Off- body was feeling run down. Haven't recovered from the race so took a day off training. Always kicking myself a few days after a race that I should have taken the day after the race off to recover and then get back into training.

Was going to do a run tonight but looked at the weather and saw it was going to rain tomorrow so thought it would be better to get a bike ride in tonight. Out for 1:34 and went for 47km. Nive ride-tail wind on the way out and head wind on the way back . Overcast day and a little cooler. Got a bit of a drizzle of rain on the way in.

Long run out in Sarnia. Felt great for the first 10.5km then left outer calf started to get progressively sore. Ended up walking the last 4 km back in it was that bad.
