We got a surprise this morning as we woke up to the sounds of rain, not very common around here in August.  By the time I got out the door for the run the rain had mostly stopped and I enjoyed running in the bit muggy but comfortable conditions. Later I went to the gym for 30 min XT + core.

Eight miles in the morning, a bit cooler and breezier than we've had for a while. Later went to the gym for 30 min XT + core.  Wicked performance was great last night!
