Weather-wise, if every day were like this, every day would be fine, at least weather-wise. It is 87°F, but the weather woman on Channel 11 said the dew point is much lower today and that it and the humidity will continue to drop. I stepped into my house this morning after having walked the Levy Trail 5K in 48:58 and didn't have to hang my clothes on the shower rod. I went through three miles in 47:03.
Yesterday it got to 102, our first day over 100 since the summer of 2013. The heat index was 112. It's much nicer today, at least weather-wise.
Early this evening I walked and jogged two laps of the Poplar Street Loop to complete three miles, including the half-mile warmup and warmdown, in 46:49. My splits for the one-mile loop were 15:09 and 14:30. I felt great and could easily have continued.
