Oak St

June 25, 2022 (Afternoon)

Exercise Type: Run

Comments:
Not a lot going on today, really resting and recovering from last week which just burnt me out. Because of that, I wanted to push myself and get a good run in. It was sunny and warm today, first real hot spell they say. I went straight down 33rd to Oak then came back all the way on 16th. Lots of concrete and a straight slog. Had some shade here and there but it was definitely warmer than I am used to right now. Felt pretty good going out actually, but at maybe 45 I started to feel it and sluggish set in. Last few miles from Arbutus were a struggle. I just kept it going plotting along. I thought I was hydrated but still could feel the heat set in. Glad I extended out and kept going h=though really felt refreshing at the end.

Essentials: Stretch

I had to rehydrate first then go back out to cool down. I didnt want to sit down out there so came back in and finished up. Definitely a drainer today and its really feeling like summer. This was the week of the heatdome last year. Not nearly that bad right now but we have shifted seasons for sure and I need to get adjusted to that.
