Nice job, both of you!
I'm still holding steady myself, although I was hoping to have a little drop, since next week will be very little running.....
Life is a headlong rush into the unknown. We can hunker down and hope nothing hits us or we can stand tall, lean into the wind and say, "Bring it on, darlin', and don't be stingy with the jalapenos."
So little running for me....too hot, too humid, and I wake up too late! But I'm trying to
keep things even by swimming more and doing Zumba 3 x week. I am just proud that
I was able to maintain weight while on vacation, inspite of nonstop rum punches - hey mon!
Is it just me or is anyone else having major problems running more than a few miles when it
is 75 and 100% humidity?

Ugh! We'd freaking die here on the North Coast if we had that. People are passing out in the streets if the temps hit 70.
Good job on the holding steady, everyone.

BTW, I'd give my right arm about now if we could get to 75. We're trolling under that with the usual 93% humidity, and I gotta tell you I like it hot & humid. I feel much worse at 0ºF and 40% H.

I hate running in warm, muggy weather! It was already 67° and 80% humidity here at 5:00 AM. By the time I got to the end of my first mile, I was dripping. To me, about 45 to 50° is perfect. My miles always go down during the summer because I'm not a good warm weather runner. Spareribs, Byll and the others are my role models because they run in the heat and humidity all the time.
Oh yeah - weight. Back up to 123.5 after my "temporary stomach flu" loss last week. Someone needs to come and get all of the chocolate chip cookie dough and Sneakers ice cream out of my freezer!

No comment.
Not at it at all.
MrPhil,
Come for a visit. We can starve ourselves together.
Well I weighed in again today and was again 130.2. That means if I didn't stay up late having 2 martinis and assorted snacks with my husband and his buddies visiting from CA, I'd have likely broken 130 today.
Crap.

I forced myself to do 3.1 this morning...my time was too dreadful to post, I get heat rashes, but I just have this thing about treadmills!
Trails are hard!
Need a fast half for late fall. Then I need to actually train for it.

Hey, we're out there slogging it out in 10 lbs of extra clothes when it's 8 freezing degrees with 20 mph winds and 2" of snow atop a sheet of ice, faces getting pelted with snow and ice and snot freeziing to our upper lips...
MY HERO is ERIKA, who REALLY has tough conditions to deal with.
Heat and humiditiy - bah!
