    Yeah I guess a lot of our exercise will have to be done in doors...or at night.

    I also ran early in the morning for a while. It was pretty pleasant to be honest. I'd do it again if I could.

    I was in Houston for 2 years and just moved to AZ last June. Damn, I hated running in that ridiculous humidity. It's like I could drink the air when I was thirsty!

    i usually workout inside at the gym anyhow, but when i feel like going for a run or a long walk or whatever its not so bad long as you stay hydrated regularly and carry water with you. camelbaks are cool but they get annoying after running for a while too.[/quote]

    Yeah staying hydrated is key

    Last year, people asked me how I could stand running in the winter. I don't understand how anyone can hate it. We live in Houston; there's no snow.
