Race weather freakout

[noisemaker2]

Ugh.  The forecast for my race on Sunday keeps getting worse and worse.  Right now it's saying upper 50s and 100% humidity at race start.  That makes me want to cry.  I like cold.  And I hate humidity with a passion.  Where is the crisp 40 degrees I was hoping for??  Someone hand me a paper bag to breathe into!

Sorry That stinks - unfortunately there is not much we can control about the weather. All we can do is do our best under the conditions, no matter how unfavorable!

Breathe. It's only Monday. It will almost certainly change, hopefully for the better. Everything crossed for you, but you have to try & stay calm...or do what I do and bounce around to a million different weather sites until you find a forecast you like better! lol

Oh yuck, I think weather like that is the worst.

Maybe the forecast will shape up for you! I like clseale's method!

I'm sorry. I know it's awful to work so hard for a race & then the weather doesn't cooperate.

Still, I agree with the others that there's plenty of time for the forecast to change. Humid is yucky, but hopefully it won't be too bad if it stays in the 50's.

I'm thinking of you & hoping for a positive change for your weather!

The forecast will change, you are still prety far out.

Crossing my fingers for you! Weather this time of year is unpredictable (vs. the Summer when it is hot or more hot). It could change!

Thanks all. I know I can't control it, and I know there is still time for it to change...just hoping it moves in the right direction. I did 8 yesterday in mid 60s and full sun and you'd have thought it was a full Texas summer day the way my body reacted. *-)

Gotta love the race week crazies.  I'll try to go relax now.

I think my weather for my half Saturday should be good, but the problem will be getting there. Stupid snow/ice/wintry fuckery. We can freak out together.

It'll probably change but if it makes you feel any better, I had similar weather on Sunday for my half and it honestly wasn't too bad. Just pretty sweaty.
