Rearranged my week again - long run stupid early tomorrow, 5 mile race Sunday that may or may not end up being some kind of HMP or MP workout or progression run. It's ~2 miles from my house, perfect distance for a warmup and cooldown. No other quality planned for the week in case I'm stupid and wind up racing it 

Lunch.

 

As I sit here at my desk, I'm trying to imagine running like that, and I can't even begin to figure out how I would do it, but I imagine it could lead to all sorts of overcompensation type injuries.  It doesn't seem natural to me, well, unless I had a huge burrito for lunch.  Not that I've ever done that or anything.

That's exactly where my brain went with this.  I can feel my piriformis and ITB starting to seize, just thinking about it.

This is just wrong:

Clear

99.2 °F

Feels Like 115 °F

Dew point 77

It's June for Pete's sake! 

 

I fixed that for you.

Thanks, I forgot where I was for a minute. 

 

That's crazy. You be careful in that crap.

I haven't been to work in 10 days.  Nice thing is, my boss is a bit older than me, and she doesn't like heat either.  We decided long ago that there is no such thing as a lawn care emergency.  If it's too hot, we stay home.

EEEE. I've never had to worry about tornado warnings before D: This is New England, we're not supposed to deal with this kind of weather! Hiding in the basement family room with kid, husband, and all the pets.

 

Except that we've had tornado warnings pretty much every year the last few years, and one touched down in MA for about 50 miles in 2011.  Maybe RI has escaped most of that.

I was sheltered in RI. In MA now, this is the first one that's affected me!
