and it was just freakin' hot!! .. I only made it 1.19mi.. pathetic. It rained super hard earlier today then it was so humid. It was just like running right into a brick wall.. awful... I left the track and went to play it again sports.. I clearly can not run in this heat. I did a .31mi warm up... then did .25mi intervals, 2 minute break, .25 interval, 2min break... i think i made it 3 intervals before i got back to my car and quit. I feel like a quitter. .
Play it again sports had quite a few treadmills, but I don't have a large budget right now...and I can't wait. I plan on registering for a November half..which would put me starting to train July/Aug.. uh, if it was 90 today, on May 6th, I can only imagine what it will be in July.. blech!
So this weekend i'll be stalking Craigslist looking for a treadmill; probably not the best way to find a good TM but it's my only option. Hopefully I can find one and pick it up by next wknd!
In race related news I have a 5k Saturday evening; MidFlorida MayFaire 5k. I've never run an evening 5k... it will still probably be ridiculously hot. Oh well. What can ya do?
Tonight I had pancakes & turkey bacon for dinner, mmmm. Chris made oatmeal, eh. Gross. It was the old-fashioned kind..not the instant.. i like the instant for sure.

I know you're frustrated but I give you so much credit just for getting out there in that kind of heat. I would never be able to do it - you'd find me melted to the pavement long before 1.19 miles!
Good luck on Saturday!
Thanks. =) I felt like I was melting.. I was hoping the rain would cool it down some.. wrong.
Just got an e-mail from the race director about Saturdays race.. the weather channel is calling for 84* and 67% humidity... awesome.. eh.
I like instant better too! But Aaron likes his on the stove. He also grew up with it with water and me milk. I at least convinced him to do milk but we have it on the stove now. I should buy instant every now and then. Weird the things you discover being married!!
