Zack - thanks for your comment! I think we have about the same weather pattern in the summer and it's real simple too - hot and humid, hot and humid... I'm so sick of it already. I also run on the treadmill sometimes, but my treadmill is in non-airconditoned basement, so I sweat all the same as outside. At least I can get a breeze outside from time to time, and a change of scenery. I hate treadmill running. If it gets above 100F, I may have no choice though... better be bored to death than risk heat stroke. Hang in there, only 5 more weeks left of this sauna :). Think of how fast you'll be when it gets cooler - you'll be flying on your runs!

Good pace. Looks like you have plenty of speed to run your marathon goal. Just need the mileage. Keep doing it.
