Are you decreasing the distance, while maintaining usual tempo, or the other way around?

I personally rather decrease the speed to keep my usual distance. Pack a camel back and keep on trucking.

Can’t wait for fall.

Pretty miserably! Doing my usual distance and keeping my pace as much as possible, but I've definitely slowed down by 10-20 seconds/mile. I'm trying to maintain as well as possible because I have a marathon in October.

The worst part is, that I can’t even convince myself to do some intervals training. I just can’t do sprints in this weather. And I feel that this is really taking a toll at my tempo.
