Back in the Heat & Humidity

What a difference 2,000 + miles makes on running conditions. I think I sweat more yesterday in less than 5 miles than I sweat all last week in Alaska running over 26 miles. I got to the overflow parking lot at St Simon and Jude a few minutes late yesterday; I saw cars there but no one was around so I hurried up and got my running shoes on and took off trying to catch people. I ended up running faster than I planned but it was good to be back on flat land. I ran over 10 seconds per mile faster than I did on the last 10k run outside of Ketchikan; walking those inclines really slowed me down up there.
I ran 125 miles for the month of June; that's the first time that I've run over 120 miles since September last year. If all goes as planned, I should log around 150 miles this month with my Chicago training plan.
