Back in the flow...

8.0 miles

8:30 pm
1 hour 8 min.
Low 70's, consistently drizzling

I got back into training pace tonight with a decent-speed 8 miles. It was another great evening for running: cool and dry. I expect they'll continue like this for a while. Summer is drawing up for Fall and you feel it most in the evenings.

It drizzled throughout the entire time, which conveniently kept me hydrated; or rather it kept me from sweating too much and becomming dehydrated. And it wasn't one of those rains that kicks you into gear like you're amping up for the big game, it was a constant drizzle. As opposed to a driving rain, it was a jogging drizzle, if you will (and you will). It kept people largely off the streets and lakeshore, so the lakeshore path was almost entirely empty, which is exactly how I like it.

I felt really good after the run and continued feeling good all night at work. I feel like I'm over my little break. Next run is for distance.

18 miles, here I come.
