Seattle experienced heat like never before, or so I understand. The heat raised steadily over 4-5 days up to a crazy maximum on Wednesday. As I was driving home from work, at ~5pm, I saw several business' clocks (you know, the kind that intermittently blink the time, temp, and 1gal of milk for $0.99) showing 108F. Woah!
I got home and joined Theresa and Donovan in his little pool in our backyard. Stuff (furniture, counters, etc) inside our house felt hot to the touch. We slept in our basement, which was probably 20 degrees cooler, without needing fans, so the hottest night in history wasn't too bad for us. After dinner, I went for a 45 min run, and it was still very much in the 90's. I got home dripping sweat. Heat training, anyone? All the people that live & train in these kinds of climates, hats off to you.... it is tough...
