It was 29C when I headed out today, but the wildfire smoke that rolled in and blotted out the sun yesterday had already moved (largely) on, so I ran under hazy blue skies that looked like they actually belonged to this planet. I didn’t run quite as much as I would have had it been a bit cooler, but still did a respectable bit of jogging.
Being a stat holiday, the trail was reasonably busy, though I only saw one other jogger. There were multiple groups of cyclists, though, and while this is normally no big deal, the incredibly dry conditions means that anyone riding fast on a bike (which is to say everyone) will kick up large clouds of dust, which then lazily drift over to the opposite side of the trail, where I am running.
I ended up well-coated.
But overall I felt pretty decent, with no issues, other than the whole hot heat thing.
