Notes
I do not enjoy that heat. Took Tharpe down to San Luis Park, and then ran on the trails for a mile and a half; which is why my third mile is so slow. did not take a drink with me, which was probably a horrid idea, since you can see from this that I completely died on the way there. Also, last mile would have been faster if I didn't have to stop at every single light. I need to drink water while running in this weather. Also, I hate this weather. A lot.
When I look back at it, I really should have brought water with me. Otherwise, I really enjoyed this run. Or rather, I really enjoy the fact that I could actually do this run, and that I can see when I slowed down, and most accurately know why I slowed down. Clearly, the trails were difficult, and I had to walk through a lot of them. But I also can now say that I did an easy 5 mile run today, which feels pretty great. I'll get that time down next time I do this, and I won't slow down in the first two miles, and I'll fuel with water on the trails, which will then be not that slow. And I won't walk (try not to) on the way back minus the lights. Obviously, I needed more water.
