I was trying to time the rain for a longish run. Tropical storm Claudette is bearing down on the Destin/Pensacola area and is supposed to bring lots of rain to our area. It's been drizzling all morning. But as things seem to go sometimes, once I left the house with my iPod safely tucked into a tiny ziplock bag, the clouds parted and I got a full one hour plus of tropical sun beat down. I kept looking for, and hoping for, some dark, heavy cloud cover and at least a few sprinkles. But instead I got nothing.
I felt OK despite the heat. My hammie is still tickling and my pace was slow and deliberate. I was satisfied with the run and I was very glad to stop. Moments after arriving in front of the house, Ms. Feil poked her head out the door to hurriedly tell me that the Usain Bolt/Tyson Gay showdown was lining up to start. I made in just in time to see the gun go off and Bolt set a new world record at 9.58! Gay ran 9.71 for the third fastest time ever and finished a full step back. Those dudes are animals.
