Felt pretty good this morning. The humidity is very draining, but plugging away on those base miles. I am pretty sure I will use the half marathon in September as a test. I want to see if I can get under the bq time so I can plan the full one and go for my goal.

I think it was a whole 2 degrees cooler this morning :) I may just making it up, but I felt very good running today and thought maybe that was it!

Today was brutal with the heat and humidity. I mean I was dripping with sweat when I came in the house. I had to hang my shirt and shorts outside right away so I did not get the kitchen floor all wet! I was happy to just run today, I had to drink more than usual from that heat, but all is well.

So my wife just checked and our area is under and 'excessive heat warning'. It would bother me if I did not already run :) 

This had to be the most humid week I have ran this year. All in all pretty decent morning running, lots of hydration needed. I am sooo looking forward to even a 10 degree weather break and some drop in the humidity.
