Time to Check the Weather…Daily


shm13

It’s less than 10 days until my Half Marathon in Sarasota, Florida.

The only thing I pray for is No RAIN and little WIND.

So I will be checking the weather everyday!! I will be checking numerous websites to find the forecast that I like.

Why?? I can’t change the weather.  I will run the race no matter what.

And since I leave on Tues and the race isn’t until Sunday, I will have to pack running clothes for all weather conditions anyway.  (At least it will not be snowing or freezing, right?)

13.1 miles in the freezing rain!!

7 of the 13.1 miles in the pouring rain

So far, it appears to be  in the 70’s all week and CLOUDY and on

Happy Running!  Do you obsess about the weather before a big race?

  1. HI Darlene,

    Oh yes, I obsess about the weather if it’s a race I’ve worked hard in training for 8)

    I check the 10 day forecasts at least twice a day 😉

    What I care about is being able to harness all that training for a PR! So, I DO NOT WANT hot or humid…I just slow down and nothing I can do about it

    Temps below 60F at the finish line, thankyouverymuch!

    Rain is ok, as long as there is no headwinds (tailwinds welcome!) and it’s not a major dumpage (or it’s over quickly)

    Enjoy your HM!
