Early Friday run

 With a race in the morning, I ran at noon today, which is relatively early for me.  Got in 3.5 miles at the park, mostly on the trails.

Fass Brewery Run

 I ran 1.2 miles early this afternoon in Huntsville and then went down to Conroe tonight and ran 2.0 miles at the Fass Brewery.  Total 3.2 miles.  This was my 125th time for the Fass Brewery Run.

Weather delay

 I went out to run this afternoon, but the weather south of Huntsville (i.e. Huntsville State Park) looked bad.  So, I ran in town.  Had to quit after 1 miles due to close lightning.  I went to the park later this evening and ran another 2.7 miles on the park roads.  3.7 total.

Back to the park

 After 3 days of running elsewhere, I returned to the state park this evening and ran 3.3 miles, almost all on the trails.

Labor Day 5K

 I ran our club's Labor Day 5K in Huntsville this morning.  I had problems with one of the side effects of one of temporary heart medications I am taking.  I got lightheaded 3 times and had to stop running.  The three H's (hills, heat and humidity) did not help either.  I finished in 1:08:07, my slowest road 5K ever.

Sunday Night 5K

 I ran the Sunday Night 5K in The Woodlands tonight.  Finished in 57:59.

Madisonville 5K

 I drove up to Madisonville this morning and ran the Madisonville 5K, a new race.  The course was a single loop.  Asphalt roads, gravel roads, concrete trails and cross country.  I finished in 59:14.

Earlier run on Friday, as usual

 With a race on most Saturday mornings, I run earlier on Friday.  I went to the park about noon today and ran 3.5 miles,  mostly on the trails.

Split run

 After it rained most of the morning, I ran 2 miles in town.  Tonight, I went down to Conroe and ran another 2 miles at the Fass Brewery Run.  4 miles total.

The storm went the other way

 We were suppose to get a lot of rain today from a tropical depression, but it went east of Huntsville.  Only got 1/8th of an inch at my house.  I went to the park early this afternoon and ran 3.7 miles on the roads, partly in a very light rain.

Ahead of the storm

 I went to the park at 3 this afternoon to get in a run before the tropical storm.  It was a little cooler, so I ran 4.1 miles, mostly on the trails.  In the last mile, there was distant lightning and a light rain.  No rain at my house, but it is suppose to rain all day tomorrow.

Wrapping up August

 Seems like a long month.  Maybe it was the heat and virtually no rain at my house.  I managed to run a total of 102.2 miles for the month, giving me a total of 805.2 so far for 2026.  At the end of August last year, I was at 878.6.  This afternoon, I had a dental appointment in Huntsville and a skin doctor appointment in Conroe.  I ran 3.5 miles at the park this evening, mostly on the trails.

Sunday at the park

 After church and visiting family this afternoon, I went to the park late this evening and ran 3.8 miles, mostly on the roads, but a couple miles on the trails.

Spring Park Run 5K

I ran the Spring Park Run 5K in Spring this morning, just like last Saturday.  Was interested to see if the heart procedure I had last Monday would make a difference.  I really did not feel any different, even though I ran a whopping 9 seconds fast today.  Finished in 56:58. 

Mid-day run

 I went to the state park at noon and ran 3.4 miles, mostly on the trails.
