Close Enough?

Well, as I often do when there is no set time and place to be, I procrastinated. Which is bad, because it only gets hotter... I didn't start until 10am! I couldn't do the run to Occoquan Park and back because I had planned on using the golf course path for about a mile where there wasn't sidewalk... and the golf course has a fence around it! So I altered my route, and ended up not running all 10 miles. (I ran 7.) But take into account:

Weather when I started
Temp/Humidity: 77 degrees/84%
RealFeel Temperature: 85 degrees

Weather when I stopped
Temp Humidity: 81 degrees/76%
RealFeel Temperature: 90 degrees

Also, did you know that your body heats up much more on the inside than on the outside while excercising? (The linked article is very interesting, as are the comments on it.) There is something called the 20-degree rule (I could only find reference to it here although we've talked about it in training. What can I say, I'm lazy with the Googling today.) So if it was 85, after some excercising it felt like 105. And who knows what my internal organs felt like?

I'm getting closer and closer to the decision to run all 16 miles next weekend INDOORS on the treadmill. I get plenty hot, and it would be nice to a) not have the sun beating down on me; b) have plentiful amounts of water nearby, and c) movies to watch. :-D
