5.5 mi. We have stayed clear of the hot, still, and humid conditions for a month and a half longer than usual. This week has been a solid "rain every day" stretch, so maybe the summer pattern of high humidity and afternoon showers will return. I had a high heart rate earlier than I thought … Continue reading Cheated no more

8 miles. Some meaning intervals, whole workouts, etc. Yes it was still and as Paul said, "toasty" at the bridge today. Two parking lot laps led to me to visit the men's room, empty of toilet paper, then the ladies room. Maureen and Mary had used it and reported there was paper in both stalls. … Continue reading Some are slower
5mi. The drive to track took me a longer time than usual. Military Trail is being repaved between PGA Blvd and Donald Ross Rd. So when I'm driving up, there are partially blocked lanes, guys picking up street cones and I seem to hit every nonsense red light even if there's no one there to … Continue reading 1 mph
5mi. A warm and sticky day with a "sometimes" breeze from the east. About 12 people on the track, I followed Seth and a high school runner on most intervals. Probably less effort than last week, I wasn't going to catch Seth but I wasn't in danger of being chased down, either. I forgot my … Continue reading Before sunrise
5mi. As our group passes into mid-September, we have little break in humidity. There are no breezes, and almost weekly I see the threat of thunderstorms on my MYRadar app before I leave home. I know it will be clear but wet when I arrive, so no delays - it's off to the run. 1 … Continue reading Sometimes there’s no noticeable change
7mi. I only did a 1/2 mile warmup and cooldown, no one seems to start or finish when I do so I clip off early. Arriving at the Blue Heron Bridge today, I see fewer cars for the new crop of people who sleep in the park. I don't know why, maybe a more forceful … Continue reading Less sleepers, more humidity
5mi. It was advertised as a 2mph wind. What I saw from the track as I looked towards the parking lot was mist, fog - translation: HUMIDITY! We did a rough workout, after the first four 200m dashes, I joked about it being 24 of them. All good until Steve Monks says he used to … Continue reading Still and Stiller
4 mi. A quick exit for the drive to school, but today's track sesh was attended by 15-20 people and some of Dave Reback's kids. They run in the middle, on the grass, or against the grain in the outermost lanes. How neat to be exposed to all this fitness starting at a young age! … Continue reading Blinking thru 400s
8mi. I came and ran the bridge warmup and run all solo. Adrienne and Lilia showed up, as did Kylan and a few others later than I. I t was very humid and still, maybe a relief breeze from the east but not much. I brought and drank water every 2 laps on the hill. … Continue reading Pre Sea Wheeze hill run
