Borrowing a page from Joe Mallozzi in titling my posts ;)

I am programmed to run on Wednesday nites, so run I did. Didn't do too badly either - only walked a little. Did the 5 mile loop along the bay, plus the extension under the bridge. It's lovely running in the rain - don't get overheated, and it keeps most of the people away. My new race belt *rocks*. It holds my keys, and a gel or some chews, and Tonks the iPod shuffle can clip to it. Tho today she had to stay in the car b/c of the rain, so instead I listened to the birds, and the waves, and the horns on the Cross Island Parkway... *g* Now I just need to find some running shorts that don't ride up, or I shall have to resort to wearing my diapers tri shorts all summer to run.

The NYC tri is the day after I return from Hungary, so I guess I will not be a cowbell girl for that. But there's always Westchester in the fall :)

I'll have to look at the brand but I found a very lightweight, waterproof jacket that has an internal iPod pocket. Chip the Shuffle fits in there very nicely.

Oh, and the running in the heat thing? I try and run very early in the morning :).

yes but that requires the whole getting out of bed thing. What brand shorts do you use? I've been putting body glide under mine to see if it helps the chafing...

I try not to run in shorts, honestly (the world is not ready for my legs! :P). I love the slightly longer Athletics Works shorts for muay thai and sparring because they don't ride up. They tend to cling to the mid-thigh and don't ride up like other shorts would when I'd spar. You might want to try those. Otherwise, I just tend to go for lightweight, lyrca, or Spandex type full-length running pants or capri length.
