After spending the morning grouting tile, I left for a run. It had been cloudy, and even raining a bit, so I figured it would be a reasonable temp. Well, shortly after leaving, the sun came out in full force, so it was hot one. I took BST to Freedom Hills where I reloaded the water bottle. I went by Ricks Creek, removed my shoes and pack, and lounged in the cool water, head to toe. There were three girls doing a wedding dress photo shoot across the street; they probably thought I was pretty weird. After the plunge, I felt much cooler for the remainder of the run. My shorts were completely dry by the time I got home 2 miles later. |
