My summer tour of some of the hottest spots in the US continues tomorrow.
I have a 7:15am flight to Houston, TX where I’ll spend the weekend with Mom and Dad.
My real purpose for going is to bring home Caitlin who’s spent the past two weeks being completely spoiled. She’s been going out to dinner, shopping, swimming in the pool, going out to more dinners, the movies, miniature golfing, mani/pedi appointments … In 10 days she’s done more with my Mom and Dad than I did in 18 summers of living at home.
I’m scheduled to run 7 miles on Saturday and then 14 on Sunday.
I think I’ll pay close attention to the weather to see if 14 is a real possibility.

I am sure you know this already, but go out as early as you can this way the sun won’t beat down on you. On Sunday just know when to quit or maybe you can shift your run to Monday?

Good call … I’ve already set my alarm for tomorrow morning for 4am. Depending on what the forecast is I might do the long run (14-miler) tomorrow and save the 7 miler for Sunday. Either way, I plan to carry a couple water bottles with me and bring some cash – hopefully there will be a 24-hour market that won’t mind a smelly, sweaty nasty runner dripping @ their cash register. : )
