Dear So and So

Hey, you could be in Ohio, 90° for two days and 65° for two days, since May. At least if it would stay one temperature I could get acclimated.

I hear that up here in MI, too. Last year I did several long bike rides (metrics and longer) in the 90s...they were uncomfortable, but doable. Almost a month ago we had a day in the mid 90s with high humidity and I was ill after <20 miles. We have no acclimation to anything much above 75, this year. I'm kinda dreading a century through Death Valley in Oct. I don't deal well with heat under the best of circumstances. I'm kinda worried about doing heat and dry and sun without any acclimatization.

Positive vibes for M! (And for her family, and for you, Tulip.)

It's been consistently warm, mostly, but here it's been bouncing between 75-85 and pleasant, and 90s and horribly sticky. I don't do too well with heat either, so my July 4th weekend rides are going to be done early in the morning...

Dear weather controllers,

If you could find a way to make Seattle warm up just a few more degrees in the next couple of hours, I would make you my new best friends. I would love, love, love it if my yoga class this evening was actually held outside. Sun salutations in the sun, with a view of the mountains? Yes, please!

So far, you've managed to not-quite-cooperate every time I've signed up for an outdoor class. This is my first week back since the Day of Kitchen Stupidity, and I would really love to be outside for it.

Thanks!
me

Tulip, Am sending up prayers for little M.

Tulip, I am thinking about your niece.

The weather here is finally nice. Of course, it's when I went back to work.
But, I'm still enjoying it early in the AM. I love this time of year. I wake up with the sun and am ready to ride or run at 5:15.

Heh, being on the western edge of the time zone, it doesn't show up until 6 or so.
Dear body--
I want to ride tomorrow, and not feel like a zombie on the way there. I'm going to bed now. You are going to get some good sleep, OK?

Dear K--
Please go get that checked out. If you're having trouble breathing...
