Opportunity

When the opportunity arises, run before it gets hot. That opportunity presented itself today, and so I did. Temperature was mid-80s and about ten degrees higher when adding in heat index, all on its way to a high of 93 today. A breeze from the south felt really good when I hit the straightaway for the last mile and I audibly sighed in contentment. I went 3 miles, trying to keep it somewhat short due to work. I didn't see anyone else walking or running, but I did see several cyclists. Maybe they saw the same opportunity I did. We're definitely in the summer pattern now. No rain in the forecast, lots of sunlight, and a breeze that soon enough will feel like opening an oven. Hey, this is what I signed up for. No complaints here, just heat management.
