A week ago I was in Canada, spending a week with temps in the upper 30's and plenty of rain. I ran outside once through the soggy city streets, and spent the rest of the week on the treadmill. Yesterday I attempted 20 miles in 80 degree weather without a cloud in the sky. It was brutal. I only lasted 16 miles.
I was in a daze afterwards, like I barely understood what had just happened to me. I spent the next hour on my dad's back porch just trying to slowly rehydrate and regain my senses. Permanent hot weather is on its way.
One thing's for sure: long runs are never glamorous.
