It was storming all night, and still raining at 6:30 this morning when my alarm went off for my run with Fleet Feet. I wasn't looking forward to running in the rain, but even more than that, I was just too exhausted to get up then since I stayed up too late reading last night. So I slept in, and planned to run and/or swim later in the morning or early afternoon. When I got up, I curled up with my book and just read. Finally, at 1:00, I forced myself to go out for a run. It wasn't really raining at that point, though the clouds still looked ominous and I knew more rain was coming. I only needed a little more than 1 hour for my 6-mile run, though, so I was hopeful when I headed out. I ran from my condo down to the trail around the lake at Sharon Woods, then around the lake twice and home. 6.2 miles I believe, in 1:13. I was pretty wet by the time I got back, partially from sweating in the 100%-humidity, 70-degree weather, but also because it started raining again halfway around the lake the second time. Oh, well. The run (and the rain) actually felt pretty good! And I'm glad I got my workout in. :-)
Tomorrow, I'm going to try to swim to make up for missing Friday, but with more storms in the forecast, I'm not sure if it'll happen or not...
