I'm supposed to run a half marathon tomorrow but it's supposed to be close to 100 degrees and humid in the DC area I likely won't end up running since I have a history of fainting in heat.
That pretty much describes what the weather is like everyday here. I have to say it has helped with my endurance, though I doubt I could run a half marathon in the heat/humidity.

Will be running 5 mile loop tonight.
I'm a delicate flower (ok, a wuss) who moves to the treadmill anytime it gets over 75 degrees. I ran a 5k under similar conditions in June and a) it took me nearly 27 minutes and b) I'm not sure I could have kept going for 10 more miles.
Well, thanks to Ike I am not running the Lewis & Clark half marathon right now. 75 minutes after I left my house I was still in a line of hundreds of cars trying to get to the start. Once the start time came and went, I pulled out of line and came home. It took me less than 30 minutes to get home, even considering how slow I was driving!
Oh well. Who wants to run 13.1 miles while getting 3+ inches of rain dropped on you with the risk of flash flooding, right?
