Making plans for summer racing

It looks like we'll be experiencing hot temperatures and daily thunderstorms this week. I'm resting today for the first time since last Tuesday. If the skies remain clear we may head over to Bethpage State Park to ride bikes. It's been a few weeks since I've done a 7+ mile run so perhaps that will be a goal for Wednesday or Thursday.

I'm still on the fence whether I'll race in July. I've never competed in July, mostly because it's such a hot month and there aren't any essential races. I'll look again at the LI race schedule to see if there's anything that seems fun. If not, perhaps July will be dedicated to training for the heat, humidity and seemingly infinite last mile of August's Dirty Sock 10K.
