Training Tip #3

99 degrees is NOT an ideal training temperature.


It will, however, teach you to always look for the shady side of the street. Yesterday felt like our first real training, since the track was locked at the first one I went to. We had an injury prevention and stretching clinic beforehand, so we didn't start our 4 miles until about 9:30. I think it was already in the upper 80s by then.

The walk itself was nice, just waaaaay to warm. I managed to find a walking buddy, who will hopefully be around at a bunch of the trainings, because we went at a good speed. By today, the temperature was back to seasonal, and my walk was back to just plain enjoyable. I'm glad the HOT HOT HOT weather won't be around for too much longer!
