70 beautiful degrees in DC today! My office building was so hot, not even funny. Unfortunately I couldn't get away at lunch for a run. After work I ran to the gym for 15 minutes in the stairmaster - a guy from school told me he was told it'd help with the shin splints. Man the stairmaster makes you sweat like a pig! I also did some "assisted" pull-ups to strengthen my pipes. Then I ran home from there - just in time to beat this strong but quick thunderstorm. It's global warming!!!

Shins didn't hurt much but my lower outside right leg keeps bothering me. Icing right now. We'll see how it feels tomorrow, I may have to metro in to work - wah-wahhhhhh!

What is with these bothersome lower extremities? Nice miles though :) You are super cool!

I wish we had some global warming here, it is cold!!

Great job and good luck with the shin splints. Those StairMasters do kick your butt, but EVERYTHING makes me sweat like a pig.

Hope you are enjoying some more great weather and that they turn on your AC.
