Sooooooo much nicer out this morning. It wasn’t glorious but it was a real improvement on Monday; a little less humid and not quite as hot. Especially when the breeze would blow.

We had a couple of big storms last night and boy did it show up this morning in the form of humidity. Oof. Can’t wait for the “poor man’s polar vortex” to appear later this week!

Sweaty and humid 8-miler with Jerry and Ben. Was definitely feeling the weather by the end! Also, the new shoe experiment is coming to a close. I’ve been having some issues that didn’t exist with the old Brooks Addictions, so I’ve ordered a new pair and they’ll be arriving soon. Ah well!

I was not so much sweaty at the end of today’s run, but rather drenched. Go away, humidity. This is supposed to be a run, not a swim.

Shifted to Tuesday/Thursday this week for various scheduling reasons. Supposed to get up to 99 degrees today, so a balmy 77 degree morning was much appreciated knowing what’s still ahead…
