So I'm on the road for work this week. Of course on the shuttle to the hotel, I'm looking scoping out places that I can continue my training.
Yeah..so I ran 4 miles today. Ummm......I've lived on the West Coast for the last 7 years which does not have humidity, and I'm currently in Atlanta where it's only 50% humidity, and I'm dying. Like I'm having a hard time breathing and that's just walking. I busted out 4 miles like a champ, but I thought I was going to die! Okay...maybe not die, but it felt like I was running on day 1 like day 1 of ever working out. I have a 3 mile trek tomorrow which isn't too bad, but I had planned to run the long distance run this week - 7 miles - here. I think I'm going have to re-think that. I just don't know if I will make it.
But anyway, when you're traveling, plan to work out! Pack for it! And if it takes up a little more room in your suitcase, look at it this way, if you keep up the running, soon your smaller clothes won't be taking up the room anymore.
That's funny that as you are traveling East, I'm' traveling west- I will be in Portland, OR all next week and hoping my foot will be feeling good enough for at least some outside walking if not running. Boo to humidity!
