Notes

Got out at 6:20 to beat the heat, but the air quality and humidity were still too horrendous to be able to salvage a decent workout, so just covered the miles and added a little since I felt like I was breathing through a snorkel on the hills and couldn't run most of them.

Mama said there'd be days like this.

Well, actually, she didn't since she never ran. I mean, she tried running for like 2 weeks back when she hit menopause and packed on the expected pounds, but she attempted this during her lunch hour in the summer in Columbia, SC, so WTF, Mom? Not long ago she brought this up again for her reason why she disliked running (she's 90 now, so I mean...) and I asked her why she didn't just run before or after work when it was cooler, and she said because there was no time. But there was time during a lunch hour? She said yes because she never ate lunch. WHAT?
