I took my lunch early today to beat the heat. While today isn’t supposed to get over 95 degrees like yesterday, I still didn’t want to run in the suffocating heat.<\/p>\n

I headed out at 11:00am to run the loop. I did my best to stay in the shade whenever I could.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>It was probably between 75-78 degrees and not too bad! Instead of water, I brought my Gatorade, just to be safe.<\/p>\n

My run was uneventful but FAST until I got to the Hawthorne Bridge.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The bridge was up. I kept running until I got to the bridge and saw that there were no boats coming, and no rhyme or reason for it being raised. Plus, it wasn’t going back down. I stopped to rest in the shade to see if the bridge was going to lower and it didn’t. They must have been working on it?<\/p>\n

Either way, I decided to double back and go over the Morrison Bridge instead.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>It probably ends up being the same distance as my normal run around the Waterfront. I had never crossed the Morrison Bridge before, so at the very least it changed up my workout.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I made it back to the office with a decent time despite the heat and the detour. I was dripping in sweat!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I stretched and then took the coldest shower I could stand! And it felt fantastic!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Today’s Stats:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Time: 33:08
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

Calories Burned: 457<\/strong><\/p>\n

Temperature: Almost 80 degrees<\/strong><\/p>\n

A co-worker gave me chocolate truffles! I was surprised when he brought them to my desk, but it was a nice surprise! I’m going to try and resist as long as I can but I will most likely be ripping into them tonight. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>QUESTION: Have you changed your workout routine now that the weather is hotter?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
