I hate days like this. I had plans to get out and run the JRP right after work, but the freak lightning show that rolled through at 3:00pm changed my mind. From my office I could see lightning striking near the area I run. It was enough to scare me from going out. The last thing I wanted was to be the lightning rod hopping around on that trail. It didn't last too long, but by the time it ended my window had closed since I had somewhere to be at 5:00.
This is the one major problem with running in the afternoon/evening. If I don't get my run in, my day is done; whereas if I were to miss a morning run I'd still have the afternoon to make it up. Maybe I should start trying to run in the morning more often? I realize it's not that big of a deal to miss a day, but it stinks when I had every intention of getting out there. |
