Day 30: Monday, August 30
4-mile run after a heavy rain
Winding down this month of adventure, following a Day 29 big goal, and having returned to my office for the first time since March 13, 2020, I tapered down the ambition today and did a simple run after work. Four miles. It had just rained so I mistakenly thought it would be cooled off and less humid. It turned into a heavy, soaked run with 85% humidity, but it felt good. I was glad to keep it short. Still high from the goal achieved on Day 29.
