third day running in Las Vegas - so much warmer than Toronto

Third day ran 1 hour
Started at 703 I slept in
Feels safer with the sun up
Lots of runners. Some wearing tooks.  Must be locals. Cold to them.  Hot to me. Some are in shorts. I love the run feels great but I keep worrying about my flight I think it is just the deamonds because I have lots of time.
I felt jealous of people having this great weather to run in. But today as I rolled out of bed this morning. My body and mind having no desire to wake let alone run. I realized that no matter where you live. It takes commitment and life choices to run. I am still jealous because tomorrow I will be running in freezing cold and snow. But I will consider and appreciate that I am not alone in my commitment to run.
To life and to health and the great outdoors. Run baby run.
I am so glad this web site was created.
