Don Drewniak IS, WAS, and will always be...CMS. |
Until today (Saturday, October 7th), there had not been a day here in southeast Texas since back in April wherein the high temperature had not been at least 80 degrees | |

Today's high only reached a near-freezing 55. Making
the conditions even more brutal was the fact that it rained all day. This was the first time in
my thirteen-plus months here that I had simultaneously encountered both
cold and rain. Given this, you would expect that I would have bagged my daily 30-minute run and spent the time by the fireplace. |

Not so! It happens that about a half-mile from my house there is a school
which has an eight-foot overhang alongside about 3/8ths of its perimeter. I
was able to do my stretching in my garage, get into my car, drive to the
school and park directly adjacent to the overhang.
While I could not do anything about the brutally cold, mid-50's temperature, I was able to complete my thirty minute run (27 times back-and-forth under the overhang) without getting touched by a single drop of rain. |
