I am feeling really good – despite some tough, hot runs and some challenges. I am also getting SO excited about a BREAK FROM RUNNING AFTER MY RACE! And yes, that deserved all caps. More pre-race thoughts and goals to come soon, but for now, the plan is still sub-4!

Looks like a great two weeks of training Courtney! Sorry you didn’t feel well on the run, but the heat and humidity can do that. I almost feel like this time of the year is worse because we’re just not acclimated and use to it, and that takes time. By August and September I’m just so over it. I miss running though even in crappy weather! Hopefully it won’t get too much hotter before Grandma’s.
Oh yeah it was definitely the weather – but mostly my poor planning – I should have carried water!
Bad runs aren’t fun…and I didn’t take enough water on my 11 miles on Sunday. The heat is here to stay and needing water on EVERY run is the norm now…
Yes, totally. Better to be safe than dehydrated!
I feel like we’ve gone from winter to summer without much spring. I know we had some gorgeous spring days, but not very many in a row. It’s hard to get used to the hummidity.
Oh man – this past Sunday was the worst. SO humid and so warm. Yuck!!
