Well, it's too humid to walk in those temps now. It was around 95*f for the few days before the race when J and I were out practice walking. It wasn't too humid though and a nice breeze and it didn't bother me. Now it's more humid and when we walked today, it was 85*f and that was hot enough.

I know exactly what you mean Donna,
That humidity, whew!
Is it possible to walk *fairly* early in the morning ?
Before the heat & humidity get too bad ?
I am like you .. much rather be outside walking anytime :)

Yes, mornings would be our preference. This morning would have been perfect for walking..actually chilly out and a good breeze too. J had his Red Cross volunteer work this morning though and we had some things to do when he got home before we ventured out. We took our little dog with us and won't do that again. She's almost 14 and it's too much for her now..poor baby girl. J ended up carrying her for the last section.

It was chilly here too this morning,
Hopefully you can get out some mornings before the heat.
Oh my yes your poor furkbaby ..
We have one almost 16 ..
We can't take her on walks any more either :(
Good luck with trying to get out tomorrow morning :)

We won't be able to get out and walk in the morning either. J's brother is visiting and will be coming over mid morning sometime, but we don't know exactly what time. Then their siblings will be coming for lunch too. Then I have an appointment with the oral surgeon. Hopefully we can walk that evening.

Always something isn't there Donna,
Least right now the weather *here* isn't as hot as it can/could/will be
So hopefully you can tomorrow evening.
Maybe once things settle down for you (yeah right, LOL)
You can walk in the mornings

Oh boy-I'm one of those weirdos who loves hot weather. I love taking a nice long walk when it's steamy hot outside and you're sweating buckets but feeling great.

You might be the only one that feels that way Karla,
Do you have lots of humidity where you are though ?
As long as you have plenty of water .. go for it since you enjoy it :)
