Summer has sprung :-/

Yes, I think summer is trying to make an definite appearance here in So. Ca.  Right now, the temps are moderate 80ish-90 at max.  I'm sure that will change here in a few weeks as we start creeping into June.  Like Bri, I'm def not a big 100 degree fan by any means.  85 is my max and after that I'm just plain damn grumpy about it.  I figure at least in the winter/spring I can add layers and take said layers off, sorta like an onion (yeah, I recently watched The Blind Side), but in the summer...nada, and I don't really want to peel skin off, tho at times I have considered it when we hit above the 100+ mark.  

Anyhoooo here we go!

On another note, had another great run today.  I'm just gliding lately.  I've hit my sweet spot, so I know it won't last long, cuz training will have to be tweaked a little and increased.  Tho, I am savoring every single moment of sweet whilst I'm out there.  Still trying to get my mind around the 33 miler coming up...in like what, 2 weeks now?  Holy crap Batman!  Too soon, too soon!  Like I said, I have to get my mental game on, starting like real soon here-doh!

I still haven't figured out exactly what to put in my "drop bag." 
I mean, it's not like I'm running a 50 miler where a drop bag would be a big ass deal.  Tho, I know for sure I will p'bly put a pair of socks in, maybe some body lube of some sort, sunscreen, and maybe another gel or two, but by mile 17 (1st drop bag pick up) I may not want gels at all, blech!  I dunno, any recommendations, aside from the smart ass remarks, I will appreciate.

Enjoy the weekend.  Work manana for me.  We shall see what the weekend has brought in, eh?
