Great “almost” 4 miler today, I really feel like I have beaten the humidity issue and am feeling great. Overall a very good run, except for a small cramp at the end that slowed down that last 0.87 mile.

Another fine day, I missed running on Wednesday because of bad timing. My planned run for lunch was put on hold due to a horrible downpour and some thunder, and switched to evening time. Then of course was canceled when the weather was just as bad. Oh well. Better to miss a run, then get hit by lightning.

This run was decent but a little up and down. I feel like I am finally starting to get used to the humidity. About time.

It is feeling really good to be getting back into my normal habits. Work in the am, run and eat during lunch time and then work in the afternoon again. A good 4 miler.

On another note I seem to be doing better in the challenge, of course that could just be because others have a few runs they need to upload. Either way it is good, forcing and encouraging me to keep up my daily running.

After this is over I would love to get involved with another, any ideas or willing participants?

A run, nothing good, nothing bad. Back to my normal lunchtime running. A simple 4 miler.

Nice Sunday 6 miler,you would think I would be used to the heat and humidity by now. Overall a nice run, but a bit of a dip in the middle where the sun was getting to me. Oh well, I had fun and that it what counts.

A great day for a run…that is as long as you do not mind heavy cloud cover and a light rain. The temp was also in the low 80’s as opposed to the low 90’s which made it feel a lot cooler. I wanted to go a bit longer today but the clouds were real dark and starting to look like lightning was not to far off, I could hear some thunder starting.

Its amazing how much better I can run when the conditions are just a bit different. Cooler temps, the rain keeping me cool and no sun beating down on me. I love being a runner, the passing cars all must have thought I was out of my mind running in the rain and the big smile I had on my face I am sure did not help.

Tired and worn out from the week. Gladly its almost over, I managed 7 hours of sleep for the last 2 nights combined. I am running (literally) on empty. I did manage a nice 6.5 mile run at 8:24 today though, and that makes my happy.

As for the challenge I am down, by a good amount now, but dont count me out just yet. I like being the underdog and like the challenge of coming from behind.
