Notes

Despite rain warnings I went out for this run trying to run my first 26.2 miles (4 x 6.5 miles). Promtly after 2 miles the rain started and soaked me; and I didn't really mind. In fact, I was quite happy and went my way. Reaching 6.5 miles I turned around and things went downhill from there. I was getting tired and by mile 8 I was basically done. With a huge HUGE effort and fight I made it back home completing 50% of the goal. At home I took off my wet clothes and discovered that my socks are soaken wet too. I didn't really felt that before. All this was a real experience because I felt first hand how it feels to run in rain and what effect it has for me. New rule: Keep my feet try...
