Took some time out of my busy work day and went for a nice run in the heat and humidity. Once I do this several times, I know that I'll become more acclimated to the weather again, but it just takes some time. Started from the office, ran down to Rosslyn and across the Key Bridge and ran out on the C&O Canal trail for a bit. Turned around and then ran back to the office so I could subsequently sit in a meeting for four hours (ugh!). Overall, it was a good run where I felt pretty good, yet the heat/humidity really sapped my strength when I got to the hill heading from Rosslyn to Courthouse. I may continue to run this route as it has some really nice features (hills, flats). I may run with the boss today, so it should be a good day. 5 miles in 41:08.
