Spring and summer in Georgia are very hot and make running unpleasant. The great thing is that I am not training for a half marathon, so there is no reason to stress my body out in the heat. However, to maintain my fitness during these months I have created destination runs. These are low mileage, early morning runs that have a destination as the goal distance. Every week I will post a new destination and great pictures about the run.
