The view from the bridge

I start teaching a new class this evening at Somerset. I paused on the bridge overlooking the Delaware Raritan Canal on my way onto campus and almost melted from the heat. There were no runners, walkers, or cyclists on the tow path and I can guess why - it's just too hot to be out here, even in the shade. I was up at 6:30 am this morning and it was only 75 degrees - far cooler than the other states in which I've lived - but I still managed to do a run/walk workout that lasted for 45 minutes in which I did more walking than running. I can't wait for it to cool off!
