Hell is Coming

The temperatures are on the rise and it looks like hell is on its way to north Texas. Today actually wasn't horrible, topping out at 98 degrees. When I ran this morning it was twelve degrees cooler, which now seems like a wise decision. We're supposed to hit the 100-degree mark next week for several days in a row. I did a nice, relaxed 3-miler today and overall felt good even though I didn't sleep well last night. Took too long to fall asleep and I started waking up off and on a little after five. Not my favorite way to spend a night, but to my surprise, it didn't affect my run as negatively as I expected. Hopefully I can get out again in the morning hours on Thursday. Don't know about Saturday, though, as I'm planning on a smoking day: pork, ribs, and sausage. If I start waking up early again I might hit the path; otherwise, I could push it to Sunday. We'll see how the weekend goes.
