Too HOT (Read 791 times)

    I got up to go running an hour before the sun. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight!! 70* and 85% humidity. I am nuts but NOT insane!! Currently it is 72* and the humidity is 94%. The forcaste is more of the same

      The humidity finally went down here. The race my wife and I ran yesterday was pretty nasty. At 8:00 am it was only around 78-80 degrees, but the humidity was around 85-90% depending on who you talk to. Doesn't make me want to run...

      "Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, 'In this world, Elwood, you must be' - she always called me Elwood - 'In this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant.'  Well, for years I was smart.  I recommend pleasant."

        Heh, that's 4 or 5 degrees cooler and 5-10% less humidity than mornings when I run here. Sad

                        It was 95* with real feel of 99* when I ran at lunch today. I cut my 6 mile run short to a 5 miler. It may be time to start running before work now......

                            This is why I'm scared to move back to the south! I had a great little run yesterday at 7 pm, with a breeze from the coast keeping me cool enough. I'm scared of being back in that humidity now. It sure makes me feel at home, but I can't imagine running in it.

                              103 degrees, 31% humidity 108 heat index. Maybe I'll suck it up and run on the dreadmill today.
                                90 degrees, 60 % humidity, 107 degree heat index. And that is now AFTER a storm has started to move in. I ran about 3 hours ago in the sun. I was sweating like a stuck pig but it felt great (if you consider running stairs in the heat fun)
