Intervals 5x800m at 8:00m/mile w/ 2 min jogs

Today was speed work day. Speed work is by far the most challenging running I do and also the most rewarding. Today it was mostly challenging. I've been running in 90 degree heat with pretty much no problem. As long as I keep hydrated it's not a big deal for me. But for some reason this morning at 7:45 it was only 86 degree but for some reason the heat was killing me today.

I managed to hit my intervals. I need to figure out how fast I can push my intervals and keep way from injuries. I'm sure some of it is trial and error but there has to be a formula.
