Another good one

Someone closed my window with the weather from yesterday morning (I always do these journal entries the next morning).  Nevertheless, I recall the temp was in the high 60s and the humidity was 90%.

I left my Garmin at the house and ran only with my heart rate monitor.  I ran 45 minutes, average hr was 130, peak hr was 137.  I know my pace was fairly quick because at the beginning of my run while still warming up, I occasionally felt I was pushing myself.  I did have one brief period of 2 to 3 minutes where I felt a bit light-headed, like I was getting overheated.  Running on the levee, I did 4 full levee laps and 2 laps that were 3/4 of the length of the levee.  I know by that my pace was below 11:00 and I covered approximately 4 mi.  This run was a 3.5.  I also did 3 strides at the end of the run, which felt very good.
