Notes
Oh daddy this was a toasty one. Course last year and this year are different than other years past so it ended up being a bit longer than 10, which is whatever but on days like today where you're roasting it feels like forever haha. Went out with the main pack and held strong through 5 miles. Everyone split up once we hit the turnaround. Ran with Arturis for another 800 meters or so and then he started walking so then I was in no-man's land. Was in 5th place till mile 7-7.5 but then I got passed up and just did my best to not get heat stroke. I could hear my heartbeat in my left ear and my breathing was ragged so just did my best to avoid crossing the red line and finish. Not a day for times by any means, but everyone had to deal with the conditions and I'm glad I was able to tough it out. Weather was around 80 but 75% humidity is what really was the nail in the coffin. Finished slightly behind/around/ahead of some pretty good runners so kicking off the summer training cycle on a positive note!
