I just made myself run. I went out to the trail on my lunch, and pretended to ignore the heat. that lasted all of 15 seconds. Still ran 2 miles in 21.5 minutes, so not a bad pace considering. But I do not recommend running when it is 80 and sunny.
Excuse me while I pass out...
Re: omg that sucked
You are nuts, I can't even stand outside when it's that hot, let alone run!
Kudos to you for doing it though!!

you go girl.... I know last night just doing the treadmill in the house (central AC not turned on yet) was a killer. I was planning to wait until later but my lovely 4 year old made me accountable asking when we were going downstairs to exercise. Even in the basement it was HOT!
I see cooler temps for the weekend though.
I ran last night at about 7:45 and it was so hot, I really struggled.
Speaking of trails, where can I park to access the different trails in the city i.e. jail trail, etc.
Way to go!
the really hot temps are definitely challenging! I usually run with the dog and she is just not used to the warm temps to take her when its that hot. Dd goes to gymnastics after work on Mondays and I run with the dog but it was too hot to go with her and then I couldn't run later. Blah!
I ran last night at 8 when it was cooler but a huge thunderstorm came rolling through. Made me have my fastes mile ever, haha! I still got soaked!
leiann, the ones around downtown you would just have to park on the streets or in a garage. There are various access points- for example the Jail trail you get onto around the PNC first side center which is on like 2nd ave I think. The south side one is easily accessed from Station Square (or the south side). it goes across the river near the hot metal bridge and then connects to the jail trail I believe. Then there is a path along hte north shore as well. I tried looking for a map but I can't find one.
luckystar- I can't believe you were out running when that storm started! It was tons cooler when it was rolling in though! (and I am sure the rain helped cool you off some too!)
Kev was out of town so I didn't really have the ability to run in the morning before work cause the pups are not legally allowed to watch EJ, even if she is sleeping
Hopefully that will be my last run in the 80s for some time!
That's really ashame because I bet the pups would do a great job.
