When will this terrible weather just stop. It's been raining for ages, and it looks like it will be raining for most of the next month. Enough already.

I just want a few days where I can go riding without the need to worry about the storm or just straight-out downpour that seems to be the way of the day.

It's the start of August already.

Although, to be sure, I'm very happy to see the end of Summer. I'm not a fan, as I have written about on many occasions, of the heat and just sweating all the time.

This Summer was also quite hard on me as I'd been trying to keep up with my exercise. My trip down to Shishikui was quite an eye-opener. Cramping from loss of fluid.

But that's done, and now it's going to start getting cooler. For some reason I'd rather go running in 0 degrees over 30 degrees. Guess that means I'm not a reptile.
