Man, when did summer arrive? Ugh, what a horribly humid day today. The temperature wasn't that bad.....around 83 or so, but man the humidity was terrible. I don't know how high humidity can go without raining, but it must have been maxed out today. Although, running at two in the afternoon probably didn't help things.
I pushed it a little today to see how fast I could run a 5k...I ran it in 28:06. My scheduled run was for 3 miles. I'm very happy with that time. In fact, I'm really happy with it, considering that I've lost 60 pounds since January and could barely walk/jog 3 miles then.
Tomorrow is 4 miles and strength training. Then, on Wednesday comes what I've been waiting
for most of the last month or so....SCUBA school...woohoo!!!!! I start SCUBA class that night. It goes for 5 weeks and then I'm certified. I can't wait. I really want to dive in some wrecks and this is the first in quite a few classes I have to take in order to do that. I can't wait!!! I'll let you know how that goes as well.
Weight: 167lbs

Amen, humidity is my enemy every summer in the grand mid-west! I find myself hitting the treadmill if I have to run any time after 7 am.
I wish I had a treadmill....I have to say though that I really like running outside. Even in bad weather. In fact, I actually run better when the weather is really crappy (like raining or snowing) and I tend to enjoy it more...I'm a glutton for punishment I think.
I don't know how to beat this kind of humidity. even though I run in the morning when it's considerably cooler, it feels more humid than it does in the middle of the day.
SCUBA - that sounds cool and scary. Wish I lived closer to the ocean.
I saw in your profile you like Bourne movies - just a few weeks left to the next big one.
I love the Bourne movies!!! I also like the new Bond as well.
SCUBA's not that scary (although I have to say I'm not really sure how I'll react until I do it).
BTW, I really like your blog. It's very motivating :) Keep up the good work.
