    I am absolutely dreading it Sad Wouldn't be so bad if there was wind or some sprinkles (please no downpours damn it lol). I am actually praying for a huge storm to hit some point today or tonight, normally a huge storm cools things down and the forecast has been "predicting" scattered showers and storms all day but nothing so much as a shower yet. Sad

     

     

    I did my first 18, 20 and 22 mile runs in similar temps (actually hotter for the 20 mile run!) but luckily for me I had no clue or concept  about weather.  lol  I just went out there and ran.

      Tomorrow is going to suck balls Sad  Hourly forecast tomorrow is currently showing that between 3 AM and 6 AM the temp will be around 70, dew point 70 and 100% humidity with barely a breeze (2 mph) ............ why does that suck???? Because I have my first ever 18 miler toorrow  

       

      Mine will suck as well.  86F at 5am (heat index) and 78 dewpoint.

          Yep, take a poll of any group of marathon runners and we all got horror stories.  Every single one of us.

           

          Just take to care to have water along the route or money, and try to do it before the sun comes out in full force and puts the finishing touches on your ass.

            I have my UltrAspire hydration pack, with a 12 oz bottle of water with 2 endurolyte fizz tabs and the 1 L reservoir of water but I am seriously thinking of taking the 1.5 L instead..........

              It was still 100F so I did what a sane person would do (LRB, at least).  4 TM miles and a kickboxing plyo workout afterwards.

                Forgot to say, we watched Guardians of the Galaxy.  I loved it!  And the ending (after the credits rolled out) with the ABC song and the tree dancing, LMFAO.
