This has been an interesting month as I've navigated running during the Brood X cicada invasion which happens every 17 years. While I am not a fan of cicadas, they are harmless so I have continued to run while they have been around. I've learned that there are other periodic cicadas that will be out in the coming years, although I'm not sure if it will be as bad as this. Here is what you need to know for continuing to run when the periodical cicadas invade.

What a wild week it's been! Our weather was all over the place and the cicadas are now out in full force, not to mention the many other animals I encountered on my runs. I never thought I would be writing a post about a cicada invasion, but here we are. Hopefully it will be over soon!

As much as I love summer running, I definitely do my share of complaining as the months go on. I thought this was a good time to highlight all the reasons why I love summer running. I plan to look back of this when I'm struggling with summer running. Maybe you can do the same!

It seems like the chilly weather has finally left for good this year and over the past week it's been warm and humid. Just what we would expect from June weather! It's been challenging to acclimate especially when it really hasn't been consistently warm. But it will only get warmer from here on out. The heat is on!

I like to use Global Running Day as a chance to appreciate running and think about what it means to me. That usually includes thinking back on my running over the years. This year I've been thinking about running challenges I've overcome.

After a tough few weeks (months?) I finally felt like I was making slow and steady progress with running this week. I was able to get my mileage back into the mid 30s, I did a fartlek workout, and I ran 11 miles in the rain. So I would say it was a successful week!
