My plan this morning was to get up early, walk the dogs, and then run. While it was still dark a line of storms moved through, and kept going. I reset my alarm and got up soon after the storm ended. That allowed me to get the dogs out but not a run before I had to start working. The good thing is that I had a break later in the morning so I could get in my 6 miles. The temperature was 79 degrees when I finished but I would say it was nowhere near that. The humidity from the storms made it feel more like 90 degrees, but I still did the whole run without walking.
I'm thinking about the Fort Worth marathon in December. I need to put together the plan, but I think the potential is good. There's also a race in Dallas the week before, but it's about forty bucks more expensive. Plus I ran that one before, maybe even twice, when it was the White Rock Marathon. I don't mind driving across North Texas on a Sunday morning to a race. Plus I'm considering the run-walk method to see if I can avoid the dreaded calf cramps. More to come on this line of thought.
