Texas is HOT – duh

Welp – we have finally hit the time of year when temperatures are easily above 100 and you can honestly feel a difference when it is only 98.  Saturday I had intended to do 10 miles, but was lazy and didn’t start my run right away in the morning.  It was 10AM by the time I got my lazy bum out the door.  I only managed to do 5 miles with stops for water every 0.5 – 1 mile. 
Goofy training starts at the end of August, so I think I am going to take it easy in July.  I have two races planned in July – a 10K and a 15K – that I am using as my training for the Hottest Half (August).  There is no reason to push it in this heat. 
Today it is supposed to be 102 with a heat index of 105 with similar numbers the rest of the week.  I think I am going to be able to get a lot of things done around the house this week because I won’t be running much!
