Pre-Warmed

No need for a warm-up today, it was HOT HOT HOT out there! I met up with some of my fellow TNTer’s this evening for jaunt through the 108° weather. Really need to keep the fluids going when it’s like that. I was in a bad mood before the run. I was annoyed because my [...]

Feels So Good

Today’s run rocked for two main reasons: 1) I did it at 7:00 PM, which meant I got to sleep in a little. (Well, I still have to start working by 7:00 AM each day, so it’s not sleeping in really long, but it’s a lot better than waking up at 4:00 AM!) 2) I [...]
