5 Days until NYC Half Marathon

Ahhhh, NYC in the heat of the summer. Nothing better than hopping on a train where the AC ran out. Seriously, I know the recession has hit some people pretty hard but deodorant at Target is like $1.49 a stick!!! Sometimes it's actually better to smell under your own arms...at least I know that I like "The Arctic Blast Scent" of my Degree antiperspirant.

Ran a loop at the park today after work...FREAKING HOT!! Not as hot as yesterday but still considerably gross outside. The main reasons why I like to train at 5:00 AM is that it is still somewhat dark (I know...I have a problem) and it is about 25 degrees cooler. I'm running 4 miles on Thursday morning and then just 3 miles on Saturday. The half-marathon starts at 7:00 AM on Sunday! Looking forward to it. All the best. Tim
