Didn't run this morning ... but figured I would post a new pic of my son leading the pack in the trail race Saturday! He made me really proud with a 3rd overall finish in the 2.8 mile race! I let him dictate the pace & just coached him a little the first 1.8 miles, then made him chase me the last mile to help him finish strong! lol In another year or two, I may be chasing him in the shorter races!!
10PM - Tried to let it cool down, but did not get much reprieve from humidity! 72 deg, 100% Felt great except side stitch at mile 2.5, probably residual effect of dehydration from yesterday. Stopped for a minute, took cliffshot & water & backed off pace. Took about a 10 minute break at halfway point at tennis courts, where got lots more water & took 3 more cliff shots. Didn't have any problems on run back home. Never looked at watch during whole run ... this is maybe a first for me! I tend to get to concerned about pace early in run, and then struggle at end - so my goal tonight was just a consistent effort, nothing too strenuous! Hills primarily cause fluctuation in pace.
