Great run. Pushed really hard. Not a very fast time but it was very hot and humid. I ran from 12:10 pm and the sun came out 1 hour into the run for 40 minutes, which made it even harder. Otherwise cloudy.

35 minutes into the run John passed me on a bike; we chatted until our ways split.

Saw bunch of deer. Kept my eyes open for snakes but luckily I met none. As always, the last 20 minutes were the hardest and it was fairly brutal this time. Couldn't keep up with the 15 minutes rhythm like I did two weeks ago.

Also, I found out what has been causing the occasional pain in my groin. Not running! I started doing exercises a few months ago, and I narrowed it down to two groin muscle exercises that really don't feel hard when I do them, but clearly cause muscle soreness the days after. Very good news: it's not related to running, it's reproducible and fairly harmless: just muscle pain.
