Oh, summer running in the Mid-Atlantic

[Chasing Amy]

I've been sweating so much that I have a heat rash on my chest. 

I realize my Deep South compatriots have it much worse, but this sucks.

I am not having that problem in the north atlantic, but I almost wish I was...

It has been painfully muggy this week.

The only good thing is that I run in heat year-round, the body does acclimate.

And being near the ocean regulates temps, we never get the extreme heat, just constant 80ish.

Ran at lunchtime yesterday, since I was working at home

It was quite pleasant; not nearly as muggy as it's been lately

Yesterday was nice! Could see a HUGE difference in air temp/quality.

Actually, DC has been hotter and more humid than Tampa the past few days.

It's nice to go early to beat the heat, but I do think the humidity burns off a little later..

It's 90 degrees outside my window right now.  Gotta walk home in this soup in a couple of hours.

You can *see* the air at 5AM.

It wasn't so bad after all.  Tomorrow though, they are saying we may have record high temps in the area.  Oh well, there's nothing like a challenge.  Are we (wo)men or are we mice?
