Week 5 - Key Run Workout #2 - Mad Dogs and Englishmen
What’s that saying? Maybe it should be Mad Bulldogs and Welshmen?! These workouts in the heat are really tough but my choices are quite limited. I checked the weather forecast last night and even if I got up at 4:30am to run, it would have been 84°F! I figured I’d take my chances (again) and […]

I was secretly […]
