I can't run in this heat and humidity. While I can ride, that's not so great, either. I feel for those of you who live in places where it's like this all of the time.
Today was my rest day. Since I am unsure as to whether my ride tomorrow will be a go (rain), I decided to walk to the farm stand, get my lettuce and raspberries, and return home. My guess is that it's about 1.75 miles to the farm stand. Of course, it was 11:38 when I left, 87 degrees and 34% humidity. Once I get down my hill, it's shady, though. The whole trip took me about 55 minutes, including my time buying my produce. Thankfully, lettuce and raspberries are not too heavy in a backpack.
It was damn hot! I brought one of my 10 oz. bottles from my Nathan pack and it was gone before I got home.
Despite the impending rain, it is going to remain hot and humid through the weekend and then just hot (90's) next week.
Forty degrees sounds pretty good to me right now.
