Weather!

Or lack of weather. Bakersfield is classified as a desert (less than 10 inches of rain) and so when it does rain, everyone goes bat shit crazy. 

There are tons of car accidents, the streets flood and cars and dogs start mating. They also stop going outside to train.

Just plain silly. This week I hoped to go to the valley cross country meet in Fresno (Well didn't want to go Fresno but that is another story.) but the rain aka drizzle cause so many accidents that my ride couldn't get to Bakersfield on time.

Then Thursday at run camp I had 3 people (out of 30) come to run. It wasn't raining at all before practice. Sure the last half of practice it was pouring (really) and the trail looked like a creek. But the girls had fun.

But at least we had practice unlike a month ago when the Driller AD canceled a cross country meet because it was windy and a few drops of rain landed on him.
