Awesome. I will say if you can force yourself to run (safely) in the heat even if it's slower, you will be amazed in the Fall.

If you can run when it's hot out you will be surprised how much comparatively easier it is to run when it gets cooler.

btw...remind me, are you doing Marine Corps this fall? -- nm - prayformojo Jul 26, 08:44 2
- I am not doing it this Fall. -- nm - Dano Jul 26, 08:54 1
  - gotcha. I need to ask my wife if she is. I know that she had deferred during covid but I'm not sure for when. -- nm - prayformojo Jul 26, 09:06
Considering my current pace I’m not sure how much slower I can go out there :) -- nm - znufrii Jul 26, 08:29 5
- You're under 12 minutes per mile already. That's legit running. Not going to break records, but in a 5K race you'd beat plenty of people. -- nm - Dano Jul 26, 08:32 4
  - I feel like that’s the floor for my natural stride, more or less, and to try and go any slower would actually take more effort. - znufrii Jul 26, 08:52 2
    - You could take walk breaks to compensate for the heat. -- nm - Dano Jul 26, 08:55 1
      - Probably, yeah. -- nm - znufrii Jul 26, 09:07
  - I'm at around 16 minutes per mile, for comparison. 10 minutes per km. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 26, 08:40
