This evening was a second trip out to the trails I talked about in the last post. The thermometer on my car ticked up from 90 to 97 degrees by the time I reached the park, I was in for a hot run. This being practically a desert, the humidity was way down and for the first time I could really see if it was the humidity and not the heat that made the difference. I can say for certain it is definitely the humidity. It wasn't a comfortable run by any means but I'll take 95 and dry over 85 and horribly humid any day of the week.

I stayed away from the hills I ran on the other day and stuck to the relatively flat trails I could find in the area. Despite the warning signs I happily didn't see any mountain lions. 7-8 miles in 60 minutes.
