8 miles - 7:30 avg. (3:36 am)

Last night, before I went to bed, I checked the forecast for the early hours of the morning.  Everything looked ok, with only a 20% chance of precipitation..... perfect. 

Since it's been so hot & humid in New England this summer I have been running shirtless in the wee hours of the am.  As I stepped out the door, there was a light sprinkle coming down with a nice warm breeze.  There's my 20% I thought.  I slowly got the old legs moving and started feeling more awake when out from the left side of the road a skunk crossed in front of me about 10 ft. away.  The skunk stopped me in my tracks and faced me..... I quickly backed up a few steps (stopping the timer on my Garmin of course) and let the stinky bastard go about his/her stinky business.  Situation averted, I moved on.  Then, about five miles into the run, the skies opened up and the lightning show began.  I cut the intended 10 miler down to 8 and decided I should live to run another day:)

My Mizunos are still soaked from yesterdays thunderstorm run..... boo.  My other sneakers are all pretty beat as well, so I ran in the racing flats..... I hope I don't pay for the decision later.
