The hot and humid weather persists, so for the first time
in a long time ever I was out of bed at 6:10 and out on the road by 6:30am! This morning was a 10K tempo run and it went surprisingly well...considering it almost didn't happen. It is just so hot and humid that I had a really hard time sleeping (no AC)...so when it was time to rise and shine, that little voice in my head started, "You didn't sleep well, you'll be too tired at work" or " You can go this evening, that's when Uber H is going"...you know THE voice. Then I though of my super sister-in-law who was up and out the door at 6:30am yesterday morning to run 19K! "Come on Anne, if she can do it, you can do it" "You can rest this afternoon...anyways, you start your vacation at noon!!!" That did it...and I did it. I must do this more often...I ran my fastest 10K tempo ever in training (10:17min/mile pace). I ran mostly by the river, which gave off a nice light breeze and the shade was on the good side at that time. Wish I'd had a camera to show you the cute little squirrel sitting on a garbage can, eating, buffet style :)
Cheers everybody!

Way to go on that morning run! Hope you are relaxing this afternoon.
CONGRATS on your (almost) 100th post! Awesome giveaway!!
I love clicking around CSN... so many goodies. Right now I have my eye on the 36" foam roller! We have a smaller one but this extended version would be great!
LOL at Marlene!
I love early morning running much better than in the evening, currently I've been getting up at 5 am so I can get my bike ride in.
I just looked up the CSN store website, it looks really interesting.

Nice job on the tempo run! I am always super nervous to do tempo runs since that's what really gets my asthma going. I guess that's THE voice talking huh?

You picked a perfect time of day for that run.
Very good turnaround also. From not-wanting-to-wake-up to out-the-door in 20 minutes. Impressive.

Congrats on number 100! I actually have my own CSN giveaway coming, so I won't enter.
Ya, so this sound hilarious I know! But I'd get the Fatboy puppy bean bag! I was just telling my husband we should get him one, he has a fluffy puppy bed but it gets hot in out 1920's!- apartment with no AC! I didnt even know these existed!
Congrats on 100!!! Morning runs are the best hu? I feel I have more energy when I run in the A.M.

Glad you found my blog, Anne! Can't wait to hear about your marathon training and then the big event. Once I finish my half, I will be training for my full which is in January (well...fingers crossed...Houston has decided to make their Marathon a lottery for 2011, so that's the plan). =)

Congrats! I would get a Le Creuset Pasta Pot from the cookware store, because they are so beautiful!
I'm a follower! I agree that having others around you that also work out is an inspiration. If they give it their best, then I should, too. Great job getting out the door and I'm glad it was a good run.
