35 more. the 5 was from the day before yesterday. I run and ended up with a rash from my legs rubbing together. It now is a pain in the ass to run as every step is a battle. then the four is from this afternoon. It was 106 when i ran it. I am home now getting rehydrated and doing laundry i will go out and do another 4 before I turn in for the evening. Probably head out at 9 or so. The raw spot on my inner thigh hurt like the dickens while I ran today. but being this close to the end I know i can make it if I just power through and keep on.

39 more. this is getting ridiculous. I feel like I am not making much progress.
I ran around a track for this 5 and for some reason, perhaps it was the fact that it was 104 F while i ran the inside of my upper thigh was rubbing while I ran. At 2 miles it felt raw, three it burned then it stopped for like half a mile, but the last mile and a half I was going to cry. When I got home to shower and looked there is a large spot where my flesh has been worn away. So running today and for the next few days will be an interesting new challenge. I cant take the time off to let it heal as I don't really have much time left to get through these last 40 miles. I can still make it but the pain is going to be an all new level of fun.

44 more. good lord it is 99F outside right now and I just walked back inside. I haven't been this hot since my biking in Kansas and Missouri. At least on the bike there was a breeze created by the moving. Here in order to run fast enough to make a breeze I would have to sprint and that might just kill me. Hydrating will certainly take a new priority. looks like I will have to get over my aversion to H2O. Good fun still the run. The new music is going well. There are more interesting things happening in music than I thought I would find. Always pleasant to be surprised.

49 more. today it is 97 out and 10 at night. this is getting difficult.
Slow plodding progress tonight. Just over halfway there and while I feel fine physically, the heat is making it less an less fun to run. I am soaked by the time I get about three minutes into my run. I have to wear a shirt even though I really want to run without one. The upside is I am on the downward side of the 100 I set out to do. I can make it but every day from now on will be a mental battle to force myself out into the oven like world.
Also it is mothers day and I would be remiss not to mention that mine is one of the best going.
