HOT April?

So there's a race this weekend.  Normally I'd be packing my running tights, track pants, wicking shirt, Peral Izumi jacket, gloves, the works.  It's not warm here this time of year.

What's hot in Chicago?  Not the weather.  What's going to be hot in Chicago this weekend?  THE WEATHER!  Well, hot for us. 

The race day forecast has changed about 10 times in the last 24 hours.  So how's this sound for race day?

Sunday: Isolated thunderstorms in the morning. Cloudy skies late. Warm. High 79F. Winds SSW at 20 to 30 mph. Chance of rain 30%.

Current race time prediction:

68°F Feels Like 68°F

Dude.  Wet race.  Hot race.  Confident runner.
