Performance Factor = +4

Felt good today,w as a good run. RPE for miles 1-3 was 4-5, mile 4 was 5+ and Mile 5 and 6 were 6. Felt the heat, but ran through it. Hamstring is still there, but just an annoyance more than anything. Pace felt really good to mile 4 or so and then was OK through 6.

SMO2% was more in line with past experience starting at 85% at end of warmup and then settling into low 60s and pretty stable throughout the run:

Mile 1 - 7:14, 66.3%, 150 BPM
Mile 2 - 7:12, 63.4% 157 BPM
Mile 3 - 7:21, 63.1%, 159 BPM
Mile 4 - 7:26, 63.0% 160 BPM
Mile 5 - 7:36, 62.6%, 164 BPM
Mile 6 - 7:33, 62.2%, 166 BPM

HR was again escalated due to heat I think by about 5-10 BPM over what I would expect at cooler temps.

Workout was probably paced just about right as SMO2% at end started to drop to about 60%.

Overall feel good, was a good run.
