Cool, Sunny but Windy Day

Posted September 12th, 2007 by Liyan Guo

Today’s weather was perfect for distance running, cool, and sunny. However, it is not very good for carrying a flag. It was extremely windy. I simply could not run very fast.

Some facts update:
Bought a new pair of shoes online. Just arrived yesterday and using them today. I also bought my plane ticket for the Hawaii Marathon, arriving the 7th and leaving the 17th. Thirdly, I am writing a public release letter and hope to submit to different places.

A Humid Day

Posted September 11th, 2007 by Liyan Guo

It was only 65 degree today but extremely humid. I thought to myself that everything finally going to be cooled down and I was wrong. I was soaked half way through my run this morning. I felt dehydrated. Just as things seem to be the worst, I got a stomachache too. I had to look for a restroom half way. It made my eleven-mile run two and a half hours.
