I learned something today!

But, I still do STOOPID things like go running when the air is so smoky that you can't see more than about 8-10 miles across the city. I ran at 5:30 before the sun was up so I really couldn't tell what the air was likewhen I took off (plus I was still half asleep and having Garmin issues that I couldn't solve because I was half asleep), but as the sun came up and everything glowed deep yellow/orange, it was apparent that today was not the day that the smoke was going to blow out. My eyes only stung a little bit.

At least it's only supposed to be in the low to mid 90s tomorrow!!
