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.

Exactly! When the temperature drops after summer, you get so much speed and stamina boost, that you feel like you can run to the end of the world.

Wow. I am the complete opposite. I jog daily and feel miserable October thru June (and sometimes July). But in heatwaves (when the daily high reaches 90s-100s F (20s - 40s C)) I actually start to enjoy exercising and sometimes even wish I could work out longer.

Then again, I usually work out in the morning. But I also enjoy workouts in high temps as well.
