Whew! Today is nasty out there (dumb drivers on cell phones included!). With the temps near 80 and the humididity (sic) in the 90% range, it's more like it was supposed to be a couple months ago.
Running today, I don't think there was a square inch of dry shirt on me. It was "schweaty!" Wringing it out was, as Ashley duly noted, "Gross!" The shirt was as wet as it's been all year. I was going to run a pretty tough workout, but opted (last night) for a tough, but shorter workout. I ran my usual home to Proud Lake Trails route (about 6.2 miles), then finished it up with an extra three hill repeats up and down Duck Lake Rd (1/2 mile up/ 1/2 mile down). Last week was my last tough one, with six repeats at the end of the Proud Lake Trails run. It was difficult, but today three was fine considering the heat/humididity. And, it was probably smarter, too, with the big race coming in 10 days. It's time to taper and isn't a whole lot I can do physiologically to get more prepared. But, I can get injured or more tired!
