Welcome to summer! Summer has officially arrived here in Huntsville which meant a nice warm weekend of training. In addition to a warm, humid weekend, it has been nice to have some light at the start of swim practice, as opposed to finishing in the dark which happens during the summer.

It took a few days to recover from Florida but by the end of the week I was back in the swing of things. Saturday featured a nice solid ride with a few cyclists and then Sunday I got out for a two loops of the Cotton Row 10k course.

Speaking of Cotton Row... The Cotton Row Run 10k is held every Memorial Day in downtown Huntsville and is one of the largest road races in the southeast. Anyway, David likes to complain about how "it is always the first hot weekend of the year." That may have been the case last year but certainty wont be this year! On that note, while the heat acclimatization might improve performances a bit, it sure wont make the hill any shorter!
