Slow, sore, and tired.  Carried a handheld and ate a gel to no avail.  12.5 miles - about 2 hours worth of misery.  New shoes - Saucony Omni 13.  $60 at Edinburgh Outlet

Med. LR at relaxed effort.  Great weather. Day off work for Columbus Day. Yep, it's a paid holiday for us state workers here in IN. Drained the hand held and 2 gels. Stopped twice for #1 and once for #2... annoying.  Great scenery around Grand View Lake as usual.  Legs were not responding to any kind of climbing, though.  20mi. Total - 2:58:xx
