First run of 15K training = too hot for this mess

25 Aug

It was just two miles, but MAN was it hot! And it was only 9:30 a.m.! Texas, our Texas.
I ran a route close to home that includes the perimeter of the apartment complex. My gear: hand-held water bottle (thank the lord), Sansa Disk and pepper spray in case of crack heads or feral dogs. Time: 19:38.

As far as running logs go, I’m trying both RunnersWorld.com and MapMyRun.com. I think the latter will win out. I like the interface better. I’m totally giddy about being able to, well, map my runs with Google maps and find routes in the area that others have mapped, too. Fun!
