It's so nice to have my internet up and running again!!!  Now I can actually log my miles.  Yes, I have actually been running the last several weeks, even though my calendar does not show it.  I'm finding that running here in Houston is a love/hate relationship.  At least for August.  It's more like swimming instead of running when you go out - the humidity is so think it takes some getting used to.  However, it's a great weight loss tool :)  I think I sweat a couple pounds off every time I go out :)  

This morning, we went out around 6:15 ish.  There are some great paths here were we live, so we just choose a direction and let our iphones tell us how far we've gone.  Went out 4 miles and back today.  First 4 were great, second 2 were a bit harder, and the last 2 were a struggle.  I haven't run this far for awhile, but I need to build my miles again.  Not that I have any upcoming races, but I hate to lose what I've already built up.  Hubby is training for St George marathon, so I'm out there with him.  It's good for me :)

 By the time we get back, we are drenched.  It's disgusting, really :)  But, winter time running should be awesome this year :)
