Fall 2008 has officially arrived... at least according to me. My short three mile jaunt tonight was a very chilly 54 degrees. I wore shorts out with a light long sleeved shirt. I was warm mostly, but the backs of my legs were pretty chilly when I got home.
The air was just super chilly. You know the first few days when the weather starts to change and you can fill maybe a nice cool breeze, but the air is still generally warm? Well that was a week ago and now the chilly air is here with the even cooler breeze.
I'm not complaining. I love racing in fall. I love the smell of the leaves (although those haven't really started to change much yet). I love an outfit of a sweater and jeans. I love where a fleece jacket.
This year I mostly love that in just 22 days I will be running the Hartford Marathon!

I was looking up info on the Mohawk-Hudson Marathon and came across a "dialog" you had from Runner's World.
I will be running H-M in 3 weeks. I am originally from NY (Long Island) and lived in Quincy, MA prior to moving to Orlando, FL in 1999. Indeed a small world.
I must say I am looking forward to some cooler weather for the marathon. Training in Florida during the summer is brutal, long runs start at 4:00am.
Myself and a friend from Orlando will be meeting up with two friends who live in the Albany area and we will start out together.
This will be an experience as most 5K's in this area attract more runners. This will be my 10th marathon and the change of scenery away from big cities will be nice.
Enjoy your run in hartford. Good Luck!
