I'm in the crash and burn column.
The other day I got up at 5:30 am. to get some miles in before the 98 degree temps and 90% humidity kicked in. Not being a morning person I just jumped on the bike with a bottle of water and took off. 20-25 miles and my pace just came to a crawl...
Note to self: Next time must have some fuel in the pipeline.
