Hello all,

Oski that is a wild photo, be safe there.

Baboon, I feel your weather and it is not good.

Slurpee Day is a new one for me, not one in my area so I will have to pass.  However, mark your calendar as Sunday 7/21 is national ice cream day.

Went out to breakfast with a few of my coworkers today (I love going out for breakfast) and got fat and happy.  So I had to get my 4.6 miles in the afternoon.  The weather isn’t cooperating 73 degrees with 72 dew point and 97% humidity isn’t good running weather.

Done with work, off to yoga!

AprilRunner, enjoy whatever you do.

Brr, fantastic five-miler.

Nicole, have fun on the group run.

scottydawg, bravo on running in that nasty mugginess. I think that I'll stick to my leggings, long-sleeve crewneck tech tee, and below-the-knee skirt. Yes, my mom is Greek. So is my dad

B-Plus, enjoy your fourteen-miler.

Marjorie, another amazing double-digit run.

jjs22, I bring the crazy every day

Tom, fantastic wet four.

SIAR, bravo on the twelve-miler.

Rondog65, awesome 4.6.

Damaris, I'm thrilled that the eleven miles went so well.

Rick, sweet 7.5.

I had to move weights to tomorrow. Today, I did 3.41 miles in 32:12. 9:27 pace. 76F temperature. A cooler 69F dewpoint:/ Running in warmer weather is slowly becoming easier. I also did an work and push-ups.

I learned some sad news. A few days ago, the owner of the salon in Jerusalem where I had my pedicure died. He was four years younger than I. He left a wife and little kid. He was an honest businessman and treated everyone, especially his friends, family, and employees, kindly. Damn. His wife is too young to be dealing with this

Sorry to hear about the passing, death is such a hard thing to deal with, especially when it effects young  families and kids.

Hi dailies:

Oski - Yikes.  That is scary.

Kristin - how does your phone think that oaibs is a word?

DaveP - promising, good job

Baboon - all excellent news

Basya - cool link.  Sorry to hear about your salon friend.

April - hope the storms didn't get you

Brr - great weather

Hobbit - Now that is the way to run...

MBC - and not from munchkinville

Scotty - The free slurpee was tempting, but I opted for the usual iced coffee

B+ - smokin' workout, good job

Zelanie - enjoy that rest

D - hola, good run

Marjorie - double digits as usual

jjs - huh, that sounds neat, good luck

Tom - yes, it was like that here until some weird "hand of God" system came through yesterday and drove off the lingering humidity

lilac - caffeine may help

SIAR - nice n' easy

Ron - 7/21 is also Local Kick Ass day, but National Ice Cream may be a good after party.

Rick - Gatling gun?

15.22 with the last 5 between GMP and HMP.  Within minutes of going out the door, I moved to the wrong lane of my street for a cyclist bombing it hard, glanced over and waved an acknowledgement, and then "hey JAY!".   Haha, it was my soon-to-be-an-Ironman boss.  Oski, do you have any spare masks?

Ha, Jay! lol

Basya - so sorry to hear.  Way too young.

I love cream soda, but I've never seen it in a slurpee.
