I’ve done a few posts with running views and as I was running this past weekend, I thought it would be fun to do a monthly feature of running views. (I’m also going to make it a link up, so if you’re interested in joining in, please do!)
When I set off Saturday morning, it was in the low 80s with 80% humidity. I had a very difficult time running, and when I finished 3 miles it was in the upper 80s.
This was all between 8:45 and 9:25 a.m. It wasn’t like I set out at 11 a.m.
I still enjoyed beautiful scenery. I imagine the people on the lake were feeling a little better than I was.
My mile splits started out close to 10 minute miles, but I think I finished in my average 11 to 11:30 minute/mile pace.
Now I want to see where you are running this month! Link up below! (This linky is open for 2 weeks so you have some time if you’d like to join in.)
How do you cope with exercise in extreme heat?
It’s so hard to run in humid heat!!! What pretty views though– totally worth it! 🙂
Those views are absolutely stunning! Almost enough to motivate me to start running!
Nice! I love the views, can’t run myself due to an injury but I cycle and always take pictures of my cycling view!
If I had scenery like that I think I would be motivated to run too but then again I’m just too lazy. 🙂
That is a lovely view. I wouldn’t mind running there at all 🙂
I might start running if I had a view like that. I struggle sometimes to even go outside and walk during the summer. Our heat index has been 100+ the past 2 weeks.
I would love to run through places with nice scenery! So much better than the boring treadmill. I love that lake view!
Wow if I have some scenery around me like that I would for sure be running too. What a lovely view you have.
Those are beautiful photos. I love the view.
The view is fabulous. I usually walk at night because it’s cooler. But I would walk in the morning, if I had that view.
Those are some beautiful views! I usually try to walk a couple of miles a day and my views are not as pretty.
Very pretty photos. I would love to take a walk there.
What a beautiful area to run in. I wish I could see that much greenery outside.
I might even run with these views. Looks scenic!
What stunning views! A great place for relaxation and fun!
You pictures are gorgeous. Every summer I tell myself I will start running and don’t do it. I hope to do it this summer.
You have shared some beautiful & stunning pictures here. My husband loves this kind of natural photos as he is very much in to Photography. Honestly with such amazing nature around, I would I really love to go for run every day.
beautiful scenery! But be careful out there. Running alone in these areas with not a lot of pedestrian activity can be dangerous.
So beautiful! One of my closest friends just moved to North Carolina and I can’t wait to go visit her and see all the beautiful sights!
