I have been on the edge of being sick for a few days, so I slept in until almost 9:00am.  We had a family reunion, so we stayed at the in-laws in Willard.  I had my wife drop me off at the top of Sardine.  It took a while to get going and it was hot!  Thank goodness for a headwind most of the run.  It was about 90-95 degrees the whole time.  I hit a park in Perry for some water about 10 miles into it, and I wish I would have taken water with me.  6:29 pace for the first 8 and then 6:39 ave for the total 12 miles, so I didn't die as bad as I thought I would.  Glad to get done with this one.  Now I just need to not get sick.
