Last day of Week #23

This was the last day for me to get my miles in for the week, after yesterday's slight disappointment and Friday's no show, I knew I had to push myself today....got to the park @ 6:55am and started my task....much nicer that Saturday and a bit cooler....I am definitely going to have to start earlier that 8am on the weekends to avoid the heat....at 3 miles, I took a 5 min break and drank my water, then again @ 6 miles....I really felt as thought I could do another 3 miles, so I started out again....by the time I reached 8.8 miles, it was after 9 and the humidity was bad, so as I rounded the corner on the last lap, I stopped to have some more water and take another breather....I decided to listen to my body and just call it a day....after all I do have a respiratory infection and I could really feel it today when I took a deep breath.....I feel good that I was able to get the 8.8 miles in and that gives me a great total for the week.....WooHoo!....
