@10dedfish BLAAAAHAHAHAHAHA!
Thank you @missingwdw and @acamm! I’m wondering at what point in my training I will stop looking like a hothouse tomato when I’m done.

And here I thought margaritas were liquid awesome :p
Thanks @starbee. When are you planning on running the second 5k? Do you want to do it “together” again?

I’ve been running for over 5 years now and still look like this when I’m done
We went to the lake this weekend and I ran both Sat/Sun but I only did 2 miles. HOWEVER. Those two miles consisted of one really large hill I had to run up and then back down so I felt totally ok with the low mileage.
Today was supposed to be the start of my marathon training, but since I was completely beat last night, I didn’t wake up early enough this morning. If I can’t do it tonight, I’ll do it tomorrow morning since it’s supposed to be a rest day. Just swapping days.Thank you @missingwdw and @acamm!

I was really hoping that magically one day I’d turn into one of those girls that looks cute while they’re exercising, instead of looking like sunburned livestock in labor Thank you @missingwdw and @acamm!

I have a feeling you both are not giving yourself credit. @bexruns I’d kill to have your race photos.
@kcboston I’ll send you a pic of my face tomorrow morning after my run (or tonight if I go) cause it is NOT pretty.
@RIDisneyPinGuy it’s not so much while I’m running it’s when I’ve stopped. It’s like all the blood just rushes immediately to my head, particularly my face and I look like a tomato.@eeyorepoohfan That’s a lot of stairs! Good job!
I didn’t know humidity happened where you lived. Every time I’ve been out that way, be it hot or cold, it was always DRY.We are in our summer monsoon season! So it’s still dry, but we do have some big storms that come through. We actually had rain nearly all day on Saturday! So then that humidity holds overnight. Our normal “rainy” season is usually around July 4th and goes until September if we are lucky. I think our average annual rainfall is between 8-12 inches, that’s it! But it mostly comes in those two months. And it’s completely random and spotty around town. And we were actually 90% humidity yesterday morning!! That’s crazy high for us. When it’s even 40% humidity here, it feels humid to us!
@10dedfish You’ve had a lot going on that’s prevented you from training, it’s completely understandable. You don’t want to make yourself do it anyway and risk getting hurt if you’re able to defer and give it your all later. I know it’s disappointing, but I think you’re doing the right thing
