I'm coming to terms with the need to slow down my runs in this summer heat and humidity... but I don't like it. This morning was just 3.5 miles, at a 9:15 pace, and that included a couple walk breaks.

I'm in the habit of carrying water only on runs longer than an hour, but maybe in these conditions it'd be a good idea to carry some no matter how short the run. I sure could have used it today-- for some unknown reason, the water fountain I tried wasn't working, even though the fountain just yards away was flowing...
