Or should I say sweat? Anyhoo, that is admirable that you are braving this intolerable ocean in the sky. I am originally from Tennessee, so I was no stranger to this weather when I moved here a while back. Seriously though... there is no amount of time that passes where you are suddenly used to it. Your clothes cling to you, you feel sweat rolling down your face, down your back under your clean clothes. Gross. Oh, right. Advice is what you were really wanting, not a rant. The only thing I can really offer here is that my old trainer used to make me do interval running. Like run 5 minutes, walk 2 minutes. It builds your stamina, but also allows you to breathe deeper during the down time. I know this isn't the greatest advice, and I am definitely not a runner in a normal sense of the word. So take it with a grain of salt! Good luck with your marathon! Sounds pretty sweet, James. Or should I say sweat? Anyhoo, that is admirable that you are braving this intolerable ocean in the sky.
