Slow down! Run/walk! What is it Galloway says - every 10 degrees over 60 is worth 30 seconds per mile? Or maybe it's a minute per mile. It's hot! It's humid! You have to expect to be slower,...

You'll be fine. Because putting in the time/miles in the heat will make you a better runner in the cooler weather. You won't be going as fast in the hot weather but you'll be putting in the effort...

Thanks Shipo. I'm far from competitive but I just thought maybe a class or 2 a week may help with stretching and such. I am most definately not looking to turn myself into a pretzel lol.
