Is your forecast looking any better?
About the same. Actually the forecasted low for the day is lower, but the high is higher. My guess is it will be about the same at race time. Or maybe cooler since the race is at 8:00. Considering it's the end of May, I'm pretty happy. I expect temps topping in the low 60s (during the race)
What about yours?
It's presently 86* (feels like 96), there is a 26mph SW wind, with gusts at 32mph, and I live pretty much straight SW from work. Good thing it's only 3.5 miles.

That will be fun. Pretty much what it was here yesterday. I had a workout so I ran on the treadmill.
Mine is showing 51 for the overnight low but only a high of 63 for the day for Sunday. Also 8 am. In hindsight I guess I would have been better off just sticking with this as my goal race. But it's a gamble because yesterday it was in the 70's already at 7am. Oh well.
Mine has rain still. 40-50%. Sigh. I do prefer that rather than heat, so there is that.

Today's quality workout went much better than Tuesdays.
Schedule called for 4 X mile at 10K pace.
Managed to do that on miles 2 and 3 - but missed a little on one and four.
Difference wasn't in the temperature, but in the sun. Cloud cover today was much appreciated.
I have run 26.2 miles this week. The amount of time was almost exactly the same as my 3rd marathon (8 seconds less). Fascinating, I know.
Inquiring minds want to know.

Lordy, I hope there are tapes.
He's a leaker!
Forgot to say "with a back pack". Went well. Switched my watch in HR display, and was focusing on not letting it drift too high. Result: An easy run that was easy.
It is 95 frikkin degrees outside. Glad my bike ride will be a nice easy spin. HM race weather Saturday says 50 degrees and sunny. Sweeeeet.
It should be even cooler on the peaks.
Seriously though, you might go sub-6:00 on some of those downhills!
Isn't yours like 10 days away?
I ran 6.
Yes but it's going to rain all week but Friday. It could change but I doubt the rain leaves knowing they have been getting flooded. It goes from 40-90% so I assume it won't change much.

20 mile bike ride. 97 degrees! Biking an easy effort in that heat is actually quite enjoyable. I am glad I didn't have a bike workout to do.

Pilates and 4 done.
Massage therapist cupped my middle back. It was as painful as the bruises it left but so helpful.
6. Waited til it cooled down to only 87. My car said it was 100 this afternoon.
