humidity

Painful but great 7 miler this morning.  It's incredible what a difference warmer temps and higher humidity make in a run.  Last week it was cool, low humidity, Shan and I ran 1:09.  Today Shan and Steve and I ran the 7 mile loop.  The temp this morning was 72ish.  Normal summer low is a few degrees warmer so it still felt a but cooler too me than normal.  Our time this morning was 1:10 but my perceived exertion felt like 1:05....06.  I couldn't believe it when I looked at my watch.  I was pretty disappointed until Shan pointed out the humidity and the warmer temp.  The really bright side is that a month ago I would have been at least 10 minutes faster and working my ass off still!!
