I did my shadiest 3.5 mile loop this morning, at a pace just above a fast walk. I think my Garmin needs new batteries, so I didn't even bring it. It's amazing how I can just motor up the big hill when I do it slowly. It was only 70 degrees out, but 93% humidity when I left. Ugh. I do take water on all of my runs, because I get dehydrated very quickly. Today I realized I must look like a running Fred, with my Nathan pack, Road ID, and sometimes my huge Forerunner 101 on my wrist. Well, at least I am dressed OK .
I wanted to go further, even if I was walking, but any other route would have been in the direct sun and I am glad I stopped when I did.
