One of the best training weeks I have ever had. High mileage in typical early August Oklahoma heat. One of those weeks you could feel the gains in fitness.  Summer is the time to train hard. The air is harder to breath. Makes your lungs more efficient. Your body uses blood to cool its self. Less blood to working muscles. Makes your muscles more efficient. Don’t hate hot summer training.  Just look forward to the way you race in the fall.  More of the same the rest of August. Yes!
