Horrid conditions for the Decker Half Marathon.  It was hot and humid.  I knew I was in trouble when I was sweating profusely after the 2.5 mile warm up @ 9 min/mile pace.  First 5 miles were according to plan, but was starting to overheat and heart was racing so had to slow down.  Became very hard in the end. Time was awful, but needed to be safe.

Its a lot easier to run when its about 40 degrees, windy and low humdiity on the flat than running a half marathon on some big rollers, when its hot and humid ;o).
