I want to run but... eghads.

Back yard 76 degrees and 99% humidity at 6:30 am. I'm thinking I might switch around my recovery days since it's turned into a tropical rainforest. I've already run in this twice this week, and it's supposed to start improving tomorrow.

Yikes, hope there is no alligators in that part of the world, that would make me run faster

Yah, but I have yet to see one with trainers on!

I thought my run last night was bad, sweating from every pore (and more). Take the extra day and then go for it.

After taking the day off, I went back out this morning, but the weather conditions have only just barely improved. At about the 2 mile mark my dog started to fall behind, it was time to stop running and walk her home. I then went back out and just sort of fell into a zone, not sure how to describe it. Is this that mythic runners zone I've heard of but never believed in? 3.25 miles later I figured I'd best stop as it occurred to me that I'd run much further than I ever had in my life (walking break or not). Almost 5.5 miles. Crazy. My body is really starting to feel healthy/good finally after all those decades of smoking. I think I'll take another day or two off to try and keep it that way.
