Marathon training, uggh!

I've done it again.  I've gotten myself roped into running another half-marathon over Labor Day weekend.  The race is the Rock and Roll Half Marathon in Virginia Beach.  The race weekend is always fun as it is filled with concerts, sun, and friends, but training for the race is always a I drag.  I love to run, but training in the DC summer heat is a beast.  I ran 5-6 miles this morning.  It was about 80-85 degrees during my run, but the humidty was low.  I ran an out and back down L street to Pennsylvania, up Rock Creek Parkway trail, turned around before the big hill going to Woodley Park, ran into some old friends at the calistenics equipment, ran up the hill to P street, down 22nd to L street, and then home.  Only 7 more miles to go!
