Or Catch Up. I've been bad again about posting, having gone through a week without saying anything. It's been a good week for runs, although maybe the heat has been a little brain and body addling. Last Tuesday I was feeling a little light headed after running, maybe from dehydration? Anyway, catching my breath after, and getting some hydration helped a lot.
Friday was also warmish, and left me a little achy. I felt slow, but the GPS was rather flattering, telling me I'd completed a 12.25 km run. Funny, that route has always measured out at about 10.2 km or so. I'm going to assume it was fibbing, or maybe that was its turn to be heat addled. I'll use Tuesday's distance below as it's more realistic.
Today, well, I did beat some of the heat. Maybe I should alter my Sunday morning routine on days like this, and run first thing while it's still cool. It wasn't all that bad though. One thing about the warm days is the traffic. There are so many runners and walkers and bikers on the paths. It's not crowded, but it's busy. I kinda like that.
