Running Reboot Day 17

Significant cloud cover brought some slightly cooler temps. At 11AM, I ran 3.7 miles in Saguaro East National Park, starting from the Broadway Trailhead, going south on the Shantz Trail to the road. The temperature was in the upper 90's but I was slowly jogging, so it took a while before the sweat really started pouring. About half a mile on the road, then back to the car on trail (taking a short break when the sun came out). Then at 5pm, I rode for about an hour on the bike, doing Freeman Hill. The sun came out a little but thankfully I didn't get too fried.

Running Reboot Days 9 and 10

 Day 9 was the Fourth of July. I wanted to go run early (before 7AM) at Sabino but was unable to get up in time. Same on Day 10. Just probably sleeping poorly due to the heat etc; not in a morning routine, maybe staying up too late and so on.

Running Reboot Day 14

Finally a change in the weather pattern that has been in place for about two weeks; the heat dome moved a bit allowing some moisture to creep in, bringing some morning clouds and, as.a result, a much-needed cool down. Got up around 7:30, walked the dogs around 8:30, and went for a ~90minute bike ride at 9:30AM. First ride after getting tubeless installed. When I got this bike three years ago the rims were tubeless-ready, but it was sold with clinchers (inner tubes). I've gotten two flats on this bike, so it is not a frequent thing, but if I can get it to five or ten times less frequent, then that would be really nice. Plus, you can run lower pressures and have less rolling resistance on typical road surfaces. So now I'm going from 80 psi on 26's to 60psi on 28's. It felt really smooth.
