Today's workout:
4.47miles, 51.07 (again - including 3 min warm up and 3 min cool down)
Road, mostly flat, some mild hills
74 degrees, 93% humidity, light rain

The hubs has decided that he needs to start running in the morning, too. He has realized that if he doesn't get it done in the morning, it's almost impossible to get it done after work/before dinner. So, he told me that if I get up to run and he doesn't get up - I get to slap him across the face while he's sleeping. For some reason, I find this absolutely hilarious! I am actually still laughing about it right now. Annnnyway, when my alarm went off this morning, he was the one who got up to go run outside. I'm super proud of him! We both can't get up and leave the house to run, so we are going to take turns. It's almost like having a running partner! Yay!

I waited to do my run until I had dropped Monster off at MDO. There was some nice cloud cover, so it wasn't too hot - but WOW it was still humid. We seem to have gotten all of the humidity and very little of the rain from Hurricane Isaac. I'm not necessarily complaining, but we could have used a little bit more rain and a little less stifling humidity. Just saying.

As you might guess, I sweat like a man again. Stupid humidity.

Today was another day of cadence drills and acceleration gliders. I also "ran a mile as fast as I could." I would like to say that I know I can run a mile faster than I did today. Today's conditions would have required gills to adequately get the oxygen from the air. I mean really, 9:23? That's awful. I will do better at this next week.

I bought a new bathing suit and swim cap today. My next goal is to start swimming laps once a week for some cross training. I will be going by the community pool tomorrow to acquire a membership. I used to swim laps during college and I really think that's the most fit (and coicidentally thinnest) I have ever been. I'm really looking forward to getting back into it!
