Life is to be enjoyed, not just endured

We had volleyball on Saturday, so a run did not happen.  I draw the line at 90+ degrees.   I had planned on today being my long run, but due to a rain/lightening storm, I had to delay until about 9:30 am.   It was hot and muggy and down right hard.   I ended up deciding to call it at 5.75 and run home instead of completing the 10 miles.    Trying not to hard to stress, due to the 85 degrees and 95% humidity.  

In St. Louis on business and mapped out a route the night before.    I failed to realize that the first .5 mile did not have a shoulder or sidewalk and was a little dangerous... live and learn.   The rest of the route was an out an back with some pretty good hills.   I had forgotten how amazing 65 degrees can feel!  

I will be at a conference on Saturday, so I had to get my long run in today.    Jenny and I met at 5 am to get as many miles in as possible.   We ran the first 5 together and then split up to finish.    It was hot and humid but I felt pretty good, just slower than I would like.....the result of inconsistency over the past several months.

At a conference at the Hyatt Lost Pines and ran 6 easy miles on the treadmill before heading home.    Uneventful and boring.
