It's Saturday - gym day! Except not. The Mr is not feeling 100%, he is getting over a bad cold so his sinuses are all stuffed up. So I thought hey, I'll go run. My legs are runnable now that it's been a few days after the Squatpocalypse.
The goal was to do 3-4 miles. I was feeling pretty good so I said hey, I'll do 5. I think I can make it without any water and be ok. Then about 1.5 miles in... bam, the path was closed because they were cutting down trees. Well shit. I turned back and just made it a 3 miler. Which is just fine by me, it's better than nothing. I kept it at a good pace of 9:57, despite feeling like I was on fire during the last mile. Sunny and 70 degrees really does feel like the surface of the sun while I'm running. Viking no like heat!
Came back and broke out the cooling towel! I found this thing on sale a few weeks ago and it's been amazing. Best purchase ever.
In case of running induced face fire, apply cooling towel to face and shoulders. Rinse and repeat!
Best Purchase Ever
