heat, hills & humidity

the truth!! sold at a local running store here.

and so it is here - the heat and humidity - and only getting started! always a challenge adjusting to the normal spring and summer conditions here.

yesterday i ran 4 miles with my 10 yo. we ran a new route and into a n'hood packed with steep hills. i just about died! it made this hill feel easy!

this morning, we ran 4 miles on a much more flat route. i look down at our pace and see 8:38! she doesn't realize this, but she is pushing me. (that pace was for a good half mile - felt great!) :)
