change up

as of late, i’ve been easing back on the miles during the work week and aiming to move up the miles on the weekend. the intent is to get some longer runs done on the weekend to prep me for a longer race later this fall.

i haven’t settled on a specific event yet but am considering the Chicago 50K or the Haunted Hustle Marathon in Middleton, WI. both are being held the last weekend in October so the weather should be ideal.

as far as “tune-up” races this fall, i’m considering the Badgerland Striders Half Marathon on August 28th and Al’s Run (8K) on October 9th.

in the meantime, i’ve been sweating it out in the evenings with the humid conditions that august always brings. in the back of my mind, i know i’ll be wishing for these conditions when january & february roll around.
