Worse yet

That really sucked.

Sucked x 1000.

Suck to the power of infinite.

I had to skip yesterday's planned run because OA invited the neighbours for dinner unexpectedly. These are the same neighbours who, when OA brought up the fact that she and I are now running regularly, mentioned that last year both of them signed up for a completed an ultra-marathon.

That started in Toronto. And ended in Hamilton (that's about 50-60 miles...) When you are running to an area that is a pretty darn far CAR COMMUTE from your starting point, you must be crazy.

So tonight. 23 degrees. Not all that sunny. What the heck - I've run in hotter conditions.

I must have forgot to look at the data that would show that running tonight would involve moving through a greenhouse. Needless to say, it was the uber humidity that did me in.

I changed course halfway through to something shorter.

I ran no further than 0.25 miles at a time.

I actually stopped to hang over a street sign at one point in exhaustion.

It was not pretty.
