Everyone has bad runs and 70-ish% humidity for us wimpy California folk is miserable. <br /><br />That said, if I do not drink enough I feel like shit running and once that happens I can not get it back. I think that had a lot more to do with how you felt than your training. <br /><br />Take care of you. Sometimes a bit of a break is exactly what is needed.RBRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14193497073393160994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141971839070256791.post-39612842799249586082010-10-03T20:33:51.358-07:002010-10-03T20:33:51.358-07:00Has Walter tried running compression shorts? Or, ...Has Walter tried running compression shorts? Or, what about triathlete compression shorts? It won't mitigate the sweat, but triathletes do run in them when they are wet from the swim. <br /><br />Also, I have a friend show swears by this hand-held water bottle that has a strap that makes running with it pretty easy. It's designed for running. <br /><br />Or, come up North - there's lots of water and rest rooms between T.P. State Beach all the way up to Leucadia. You could probably go as far as 15 miles by going out and back.Chris Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06670072457969152936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141971839070256791.post-75657697085725703852010-10-03T18:16:33.759-07:002010-10-03T18:16:33.759-07:00Wow, I feel so much better after reading this post...Wow, I feel so much better after reading this post. FOR TWO SOLID days, I came home with soaking shorts; wet like they had been hosed down! They were rubbing and killing me on the way home this morning. A few other people looked sweaty but I was drenched and I'm never like that. I feel for Walter...hugs to him(sweaty and *friendly* embrace inserted here).<br />OK, so just enjoy LB, I'll be looking for you guys with my COW BELLS and spastic self. I can't wait. I guess Glenn is putting a dinner together so we can't miss it!!<br />Have a cooler week,<br />megAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00129091073767399081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141971839070256791.post-66416959016785594862010-10-03T18:00:04.242-07:002010-10-03T18:00:04.242-07:00Ok girlie don't be too hard on yourself!

I turned around at the Shelter Island pier cuz I jus couldn't make the torture of sweat in the eyes any longer then it was going to be. And by the way, Walter's water was wonderful!

When it is that humid, I cramp up quite a bit unless I drink something with electrolytes.<br /><br />I am not a huge fan of my belt, but I need to carry the water. I don't like drinking fountains at all. I do like my handheld, but it doesn't hold enough for my long runs. I have the insulated Amphipod bottle.<br /><br />I really like running on Shelter Island...your pictures brought back some memories.<br /><br />I hope I get to see you at LB.

Not sure about the sweating issue, but I'll ask. Maybe that's a track club question? <br /><br />It was fun seeing you guys run by!

I quickly grew accustomed to mine. I'd bring it all the time if I had water stops for refilling available.
