It’s been a wet and somewhat cool spring in Virginia and summer is still officially one day away. But the heat was on just the same today. Really I should have gotten out earlier, but I was off work for the Juneteenth holiday observance and I slept in a little. Then I had breakfast, checked in on a project at work, did some cross country season preparation - my team’s summer program starts July 7 - and next thing I knew it was 1pm. Luckily this little 5k trail trot was 95% shaded and there was even a tiny breeze every now and then. Still I kept it really slow. Then I still had 50 minutes of lower body strength work to do but that was at least in the air conditioned comfort of my basement gym.

Long range forecasts are calling for a heatwave next week. Summer took its time to get here, but it’s here.
