Twice

Ended up running twice today, once in the morning when it was cooler, and again  in the evening with the Men's Running Club. I ran early because I thought there was a chance everyone would opt not to run in 95 degree heat in the evening. Instead, the MRC runners decided to do a slow 3 miles in the evening. I was OK with that, so for the day I had 7 very easy miles.
How slow? Well, the morning 4 was done in 42:08, which is a 10:31 pace, and the evening 3 was done in 31:38, a 10:27 pace.
Today was the first day of my 16 week training program for the Kansas City Marathon. It's an ambitious program, mostly because it features some 9 and 10 mile runs in the middle of the week. Those will be difficult to fit in if the weather doesn't moderate some and allow for a few evening workouts. I guess I'll worry about that when the time comes.
