Today I actually had another runner wave back and acknowledge me! Okay, I don't really feel the exclamation-point type of caring about this, but after my post on Thursday it seems worth mentioning. I still didn't wave at bikers - er, cyclists, though.
I was pleasantly surprised this morning. First of all I intended to get up earlier, but I was up until midnight. I thought my window for cool weather had already passed, but a few minutes before 8 o'clock it was still only 69 degrees when I walked out on the deck. Plus it was slightly overcast, making it feel just fine. I hurried out the door and ran the first half of my 8 miles in very nice running weather. The sun came out and instantly the humidity shot up. I was thinking on my trek back along 96th Street that I'd have to walk up the hill some in order to keep from overheating and being discovered as an overheated corpse by some other harrier. Right then the slight clouds came back and saved me. I ran the whole 8 miles and am starting to feel a little better and stronger. That's 26 miles for the week. Guess I'm committed now.
