Met Mark P at  the Y. Averaged 8:32 pace but felt terrible. What a crappy run for me. I was fading toward the end so I had to focus on form and stay focused to keep running.

Ran out with Eudair, Diane, Katie, Mark, Dan, David, Andrea.... Ran a few miles in the 7:40 range early. Took water stops on the trail, hammer gel at 4.25 miles. Hit a wall at 11 miles. Had to walk almost a mile before I could run again. It just got really hot and I had nothing left.

Hey, I still completed 13 miles, even if I had a Galloway moment! I got dropped at 11.5, walked a ways, ran the last mile with Katie who dropped me at 11 and then got dropped around 12. We agreed it was hot and we should have started earlier and slower.

Start Time: 6:30 AM     Total Time: 1:49:40 (stopped watch at water stations)

Temp: 77 - 84 degrees
