For those of you that have and are on the training schedule, week two should look like 4-6 light runs totaling 50% of your full volume week. Add some short hill repeats or strides on Thursday.
Reminder...first, increase the frequency of running... second, increase the duration of runs... and third, increase the intensity of runs. So early on, run more often. Run twice a day more often. Then, increase the durations of those runs. Continue with stretching, foam-rolling, mobility, leg swings, etc.
As we get into the summer months, don't be afraid of the heat and humidity. Just slow down and run the appropriate effort. See below chart on how to adjust pace depending on dew point and temperature...

39 miles last week, body feels ok. Right Hamstring is a little stiff from sitting all day at work but taking extra effort to stretch it out and take care of it. Adapting to running in the heat of the afternoon, this spreadsheet really helps.
