Cooling down

We had cooler weather today, but more importantly, the humidity was gone.  I know its only temporary, but its nice to have break.  I did 4 tonight and 7 on Wednesday (humid!).  My left calf is sore before the run and my right calf gets sore late in the run.  Its crazy.  It was nice to leave the water behind tonight and not have to carry it.  I got only one bug in my eye that I carried back to my truck (in my eye).

There are still tons of rabbits and I have stopped counting them, there are so many.  Last night I saw a black weasel run across the path.  Looked kinda like a ferret only sleeker and not so clumsy when it ran.  I’m pretty sure they don’t like people to pet them.  And the bats were just CRAZY!  One circled right around me.  I guess I had bugs around me or something but I wish they’d find somewhere else to eat.

There is a house right next to the path entrance.  The house has a giant driveway.  It is wide enough for three cars across if they squeeze in, but easily to, and then three cars deep.  Do the owners park their 5 cars in their driveway?  No.  The people in the house park in the small strip of parking space for the running path.  They think nobody knows.  I pulled in right behind the woman today and she sat in her car and pretended like she was doing things with her phone and fixing her mirror so I would leave and not see her get out and go into her house.  I took my sweet time and glance over to see her glaring at me.  :D

In other news, I lost 10 pounds since July 1st.  If found, please do NOT return them.  :)

    10 pounds? Awesome! Congrats.

    I would think you’d rather have a bat circling you than whatever the bat is eating, but it would be an adjustment I guess.
