I love Fall

Today was a very short, and quick 4 mile afternoon run. Didn't get in a morning run today due to the rainy forecast, and I was really waiting for the front to blow in. It was a cool and breezy 69 degrees, and overcast, which made for perfect running weather. I ran a very fast-for-me pace and didn't even break a sweat because the temperature was so comfortable. I just ran the bridge since it's relatively flat, and it's a nice easy old stand by for the distance. What's great about these shorter distances is I don't need much gear. I love any run that's less than an hour because the fuel belt isn't necessary, there's just not much need for me to rehydrate before then. Plus with the cooler temperature, I sweat way less and need less replenishment of fluids than in the sweltering summer. I so wish the awesome weather would stick around, but it's already predicted to be back in the 80's by race day. The coolish weather did get me thinking I've got to start looking around for some decent running tights and locate my cold weather gear so it'll be ready for the week of winter that may happen mid December...
