Came home fm work, avoided dogs & ran local loop (Allen, BBR, WHR,Allen), long time since. Deer flies & humidity were tough going in Nottingcook portion, had cap --- l remembered. Had planned to run home but temp mid-80's & other issues. Found dead snake, ? milk snake, not apparent what killed it. I thought it was alive for some # of seconds. Attractive markings.

Back to SPS XC: 14:51, a little better, knew I was doing just one. Raining pretty hard, still hot before finishing.

Jog on SPS trails after, no one to come along. Diane won't run in rain during work day.

SPS XC x 2 at noon by myself. Nice day but felt hot in sun when there. Legs tired or forgot about turning over. Can see the difference now that O season motivation is past. Also, carried cell/beeper, thought I'd need to ans page. Did not have water, either - lessons that should have been learned by now. Rt heel complaining alot after; need more elevation.

w/ Diane at noon, too warm for cotton T shirt. Very showery period.

pre-work w/ Z&M outbk in rain, short but said I'd run 3x today since I missed 2 days.

Noon by myself, felt noncompliant about noon mtg & was glad to be on my own. On the hot side in cotton T shirt. Lots of rain today but none as I ran.
