Downtime Time
Finally got away from work and slowed
down my running for a few days this summer. I needed it. Seems like I
have been busier than ever on all fronts this year.
But there is nothing like napping under
a beach umbrella and listening to the waves wash up on the shoreline.
Just thinking about it now, the sights and sounds of the waves
washing in and out still linger. To me this is as relaxing as it
gets.
Of course, I still found time for
running.
One morning, I was cruising down the
beach. A light breeze blew across my face and no hills were in sight.
This is a runner's dream. Right? Well, except even with the sun barely
above the horizon, the temperature was pushing the upper 80s and
nearly 100% humidity. May be 10 minutes into this run, I was soaked
from sweat.
What else should I expect. This is the
south. Heat and humidity are bad and worse in Florida.
Now, it is time to get back to work on
all fronts. There is much to do and preparation for my big races this
fall begins now.
I cannot wait to get started tomorrow.
