I slept in after yesterday's monster hash. Actually, I woke up early and finished my homework that I didn't do because of yesterday's monster hash.

Nothing fancy today, but I did get a pair of RaceReady shorts. I got the 3/4 split cut ones with the 1" inseam. I have no modesty issues, because I frankly don't fucking care. It does work really well to not have to pull my shorts back from between my chubby legs.

When I was in high school I could still get away with wearing split shorts. I was a lot thinner back then, too.

Still, the shorts are nice. Expensive, but well worth the expense. I can't wait to try them out on a longer run.

For it being 92 degrees the relative humidity made it tolerable (and my glacial pace). I didn't feel that bad. Then again, I wasn't trying to go that hard either.

The gnats were out in force. I'm still picking some off my skin as I type.
