Week 10 of training was a little rough. I had a headache that turned into a migraine on Thursday and for some reason thought it would be a good idea to try to run once it started going away. That was a horrible idea on my part and the pounding of running made my headache way worse. So I basically walked for 40 minutes on the treadmill instead (better than nothing!).
Saturday was our first run in the double digits! We started the run at 8 am and were wishing we would have started at 6 instead. It was brutally hot and humid. Our pace was actually pretty good considering the conditions. I stretched and foam rolled for 40 minutes and then took an ice bath. After refueling and rehydrating I didn't feel too bad the rest of the day.

During my long run this week I thought a lot about resilience and what it takes to become resilient. In my running life I feel as if I have developed resilience. Running in tough conditions, whether it be heat or frigid cold, will toughen you up and make you work hard for what you want.
