Sweating to the Mondays

Humidity, 85%.
Recovery run today.  I decided to bring my water bottle with me to try to drink in rythem and not got stitches.  That much worked better.  Thankfully I had it since the humidity went LeBron James on me. By the time I finished, I looked like I jumped in the lake. I started to think I blacked out and had been in the lake. A cool shower felt nice afterwards.

Light crowd today, mostly normal faces. I feel bad for runners going out later in the day.  I kept my eyes sharp for gnat colonies ready to strike.  I pulled a Barry Sanders type juke when I saw one massive cluster appear.  Watch under low hanging foliage and near large plants for the gnats.

And one photo for the day:


Did you embrace the sweat today and run today?

  1. Gorgeous sunrise! I love it when you get to see the rising sun peeking through the clouds like that. The bugs have been bad on the trail I run on, too. I've been wearing sunglasses to protect my eyes, but I think I ate a few on my run a couple of days ago. Extra protein? :)
