Thoughts:

• I stopped my outdoor run at mile 10. I was cold and drenched. There was no indication that the rain was going to stop anytime soon. I had been running in a downpour for over 7 miles.
• Between changing clothes and driving over to the health club about 25 minutes had passed. My legs were a little stiff. The first few miles were difficult menatally. I eventually fell into a rhythm and completed the 20 miles.
• This was not my finest workout, but at least I finished.
