I did a jog this morning, 6.5 mi and walked another 0.5 mile home. It was pretty hot once the sun rose. I don't know, I may have to set a super early alarm so that it's still dark when I first start my jogs; I find it so much easier to jog or even power walk before the sun gets too high in the sky.

@Discombobulated - Are you working on running pace for the half marathon or more just completing it without having to walk much or any of it? Just wondering if you were working on speed as well?

@Tart Cherry Jam - Swimming is so good for you and great for not putting too much pressure on the joints. I wish we had a pool. There is one at the park, but IDK, so many parents bring their kids there and I think "oh, my God, I'll bet half these kids are peeing in the water while they're in the pool!" and really just don't want to go in there! Probably ridiculous, but I don'tknow, I know I definitely was guilty of that as a kid in public swimming pools
