That's what I'm talking about.

It had to happen at some point but it took longer than usual this year and I was getting spoiled! I'm talking about the weather, of course. For the first time this season, I had to break out my long pants to run tonight. It's in the 40s. And it started sprinkling on me during my last lap.

NONETHELESS, the run was a success. And whew! Because the last time I ran on that track was last Wednesday, when everything was horrible and I thought perhaps I'd lost my ability to run altogether. There's a certain psychological difficulty in going back to a place where you had a really dismal run, you know, but it worked out greatly because I was kind of awesome this evening (even with the stupidly cold wind and stupidly cold rain drops!).

4.5 miles in 48:57.

By the by, the subject line is in reference to the run itself, and not the weather. Otherwise that just wouldn't make a lot of sense.

  2. What is with all the rain?? Strange times... But this time last year, I was running in temperatures in the 20s. This year the worst I've had to deal with is mid- to upper-40s. I'm definitely not complaining about the temperature!
