Running Thoughts: Week 11

We are at week 11.
This week was pretty darn hot, i mean real hot.
I ran yesterday right after work as usual. Unlike Tuesdays run, which I usually wait til the sun goes down, yesterday (Thursday) I ran when the sun was still out, like right around 5ish. Now you're wondering, why I'd do such a crazy thing like that? Well, I had my LG meeting later that evening, and thought I'd squeeze in a run before that, especially to keep up with my weekly routine. So I ran for over an hour around my neighborhood, and after, I was soaked in my own sweat. I was compelled to take a cold shower, in hopes to alleviate my sense of overheating and heat exhaustion. As I took a cold shower, and after, having dried myself- I was still sweating- profusely. Pretty wild huh?
Fortunately for us, we have this nice holiday weekend, and thus taking our break from our morning run tomorrow...actually it might be a good thing as the temperatures been pretty crazy with the sweltering heat. So enjoy the nice weekend and stay cool.

Also here's a look at a couple weeks back for our 2nd 8 miler in Pasadena.





Sidenote:
This weekend is also a big event for Darren, as he ties the knot with his longtime high school sweetheart. So the next time ya see him, give him a big "congrats".
You know the guy who runs with a Brazilian soccer jersey, but he's actually not Brazilian.

To celebrate- as Darren has been practicin his dance moves on his bride to be...here's a music video dedication to this occasion that gets us all in the festive mood.
I think Darren can study some of dance moves by Steve Carrell for tomorrow's big day.
