Wednesday Night Run in Vancouver
Well, I had to go run this evening - even though I didn't get "home" from work untill 11 p.m.
Why (other than the fact that I've been a little lazy and for working 36 hours the last 3 days)? For all my friends at home in Houston ... well, it is 52 degrees outside! I was blowing steam! Got to love it!
Even though it was probably too much, I did the 8.58-mile route around Stanley Park in 1:32:36 for a 10:48/mile pace. (Stanley Park is dark unlike Memorial Park at home which you can safely run on all night long.) When it's cool out, you feel like - for awhile - you can run forever.
Tomorrow night? The low is supposed to be 48 degrees!
(And, yes, the time is right on this post - 3:39 a.m. Central)

Push some of that weather this direction. It is kind of funny that today the humidity is low in Southeast Texas and we think it feels somewhat like fall when the high will be close to 90. Marathon training sure would become more bareable if it were cooler ... not cold, but cooler.
Hope you get some rest soon.
Tommy,
I more enjoy - notice that I didn't say "love" - running in the cold weather as opposed to the heat.
I hope the get reinvigorated by running five of the next six weeks in the cold stuff (including this week).
If I don't, Houston isn't going to be pretty in January.
Jon
