Qatar it be hot

Just arrived in Qatar, not to bad at night, but i got up this morning (2am wichita time/10am local) to a 100+ deg. scorcher , im planning on running nights NOW. I'll send some awsome pictures of the lush green grass and huge trees as soon as they get them. I guess this will make up for the lake of summer in wichita. Reminds me of Dallas but in September.

Ashlea came to visit me for the send off in tulsa, we went to a run store and i got this nike plus over glorified pedometer to get some kind of idea on what mileage/pace/times im doing. Ive been running for a little over an hour so just around 9 miles as a kind of base before i jack up the intensity to get to a goal of maintaining a 7min/mile pace for this 15k. Will see if its going to work out soon enough.... I found out there is a army 10k the week before the tulsa 15k so that should be a good warmup for it.
