I'm not a summer person, especially not a Toronto summer person. I hate the heat, I hate the humidity, I hate feeling sticky all day. Air conditioning is great, but it seems like I either have to freeze or sweat. And yes, I am still whining about it, even though this week is cooler than last week (34C humidex instead of 43C). I ran on the treadmill in my basement the other day, at 10pm, and I could still feel the humidity. I was going to attempt 8k, but I bailed at 5k.
Meh. I guess I will acclimatize. I sure hope that it is not too hot for my race in 6 weeks, though!
We're heading to Vancouver in 2 weeks. I can't wait! Well, aside from being nervous about taking a 4 month-old on the plane, I am looking forward to it. Hopefully there won't be a heat wave like when we were there last year!
About Me
- anners
- I am an average, not-really-athletic woman who took up running in an attempt to lose weight. That was in the summer of 2004. In the beginning, I found it difficult to run continuously for 10 minutes. I ran my first half marathon in June 2005, and my first full marathon in May 2006. I lost about 25 lbs over time. In March 2010, I had a baby!! Now it is like starting from scratch again, but I am determined to stick to it!
