Notes:

  • Ha, both this week and last week, we had a day where it was overcast and stormy all day, but super sunny and humid when I stepped out for my short run, then overcast right after I finished. Sigh. That was this Tuesday. The dew point was 69°. Blah. I didn’t think I was going to call it quits at 3, but I didn’t bring water, and should have if I wanted to go farther!
  • Then we had some amazing weather days but I took one as my rest day and was so mad I had to use the next one as another rest day because of a headache GRRRRRRRRRRR!
  • You can obviously tell not much is going on with my training since most of these bullets are about the weather SNOOZE!!!!
  • I’ve been loving listening to podcasts when I run but they slow me down about 30 seconds per mile. And I listen to so many now, and don’t run that much, so… more slower miles. That’s all good – I am just happy to be running!
