I am not a runner. Running has never been a big part of my life. But I've always wondered if I could be a runner. This blog will chronicle my (3rd) attempt at training for and running the Rock 'n' Roll Marathon in San Antonio, Texas on November 14, 2010.

I'm melting...
The heat is making me nervous. I try to get out to run between 7 and 7:30 am, and it's already really hot. It's only June and we've already had many 100+ degree days! I'm nervous about August. I'm not into running in 90 or 100 degree weather. And the treadmill at the gym just isn't the same. When I go back to work, I'll have to do most of my running in the evening, or get up at, like, 4 am to run in the morning. I'm just not all that into the 4 am thing. But even at 8:30 and 9:00 at night, it's still in the 90's!! However, I'll do it if I have to. Going back to work was one of the things that derailed me last year. I'll have to make sure I fit my training in no matter what. Anyone have any tips for beating the heat when training for a marathon? You'd think I'd be used to it by now, having lived most of my life here in Texas...
