Finally, after enjoying a June and July with no 90 degree days, we've hit a hot spell. High temperatures have been in the 90s for the past couple of days, and it looks like they will wind up there the next couple of days as well. I actually don't mind it too much, especially because we have AC at home and at the office. What I mind is when the low temps at night don't get out of the 70s, because that means it will be pretty warm for jogging even when we hit the road early.
Tasha is just like me in terms of temperature preferences. We both droop in the heat and humidity, but we're cool in the cold. It's a good thing that we transplanted ourselves to New England from our native Texas and Alabama! Running in Texas in the summer is just beastly, even with an early start. With Tasha I have to be extra-careful too, because dogs can get heat stroke and even die if overheated. So on days like today we take it easy. We did a shady "Back Boardwalk by Bridge" loop and stopped to walk often. Today's bonus -- encounters with two friendly dogs and no mean ones!
