Tough run today...probably ventured out a little too late. Couldn't get out until 10:30am and then attempted a 20-miler in 80 degree heat with strong humidity. Was doing ok until mile 17 when the wheels came undone...was keeping an 8minute pace until the final 3 miles- walked 1/4, ran 3/4 for final 2 miles. At least I got it in before leaving for vacation this afternoon.

Now you can really enjoy your vacation!

Those runs happen to all of us and they make us stronger, I will probably have the same thing tomorrow.

Enjoy
