45 min of pabement running, at night, in my creepy town with my husband following me in his car, like a stalker, keeping me safe. It's too hot to run in the day. In fact I am skipping my 10k trail race tomorrow cuz of heat.
Heat is part of why I'm only running in the early morning during this time of year.It's too hot to run in the day. In fact I am skipping my 10k trail race tomorrow cuz of heat.
oh, no! Was it cut and trying to dry, then?as long as I did not look at my fields of rained on alfalfa.

It's good to have a glass that's half full!Yes. We have harvested about 150 acres out of 480. I try to look at the positives. The valley needs the moisture, my yard and garden look great, weeds are easier to pull, and it makes the running conditions wonderful. Every year is the same. We cut late, get rain. We cut early this year, got rain. We have a ray of hope, it is supposed to be clear next week.

Wow, great pace and great mileage for the week!For Dama: 4 miles BF, 31:25 including 2 stops to clear rain gauges, I kept the clock rolling.
Nearly the same course, but the difference today, besides the motivation, was 3/4 inch of rain. Made the conditions run-able at a faster pace and also quite enjoyable as long as I did not look at my fields of rained on alfalfa.
42.5 miles for the week (14.5 BF)
Everyone's different, but at the least sign of trouble, I've learned to shut it down and either (1) stop to stretch and massage the problem area, or (2) walk the rest of the way home. Live to fight another day. I don't think there's anything to be gained from running nigglefully, and quite a lot to be lost.Hurt my calf/Achilles on my right foot and left knee. Felt it about mile five but just kept going.
Scratch, feel free to ignore Dama at any time. She's our Janis-faced shit-giver/cheerleader.Tell you what. Assuming I don't do something stupid and hurt myself, or somehow fail to get myself ready for it, when I run that 5K that I intend to run the last weekend of October, I'll have a measured time then and I'll report what it was. But for now, I think I'm going to fly with the idea of just running without a clock. It seems kind of primal somehow. Maybe I need a little primal in my life right now.
