Today's run sucked

It's several hours after today's run and I'm still wiped out. Managed to complete 4 miles but it wasn't easy or pretty. The first 2 miles seemed fairly normal but then somewhere in the 3rd mile it started degrading. Eventually I switched to survival mode as if I was in the last 10 miles of a marathon. Run - walk - run - walk, hope to get hit by a car... stagger in.

It's obvious to me that I have to stop running in this heat & humidity, at least until I drop a few pounds and get closer to being in shape. The run today knocked 4 lbs off me, I know it's all water weight but jeez still. So either tomorrow or Friday I am going to try running very early in the morning to avoid the heat.
