Notes

Ran with the Hendedrsonville Running Club.

70 degrees at the start, dew point in the mid 60's, humidity mid 70's. Warmed to 75 degrees by the end of the run.

Started at Drakes Creek and went towards the Library to get on the Boomer. I felt pretty good climbing the hills today. I must have bumped the manual split on the GPS as it got off around 8 miles so I did the manual split at the end of 11 miles to get it back on track.

Got back to Drakes Creek Park at the 14 mile mark. After refilling the water bottle and taking a rest room break, I found it incredibly tough to get going again. Had to fight the demons that wanted to do these last two miles in the evening and just pushed through the 15th mile. By the time I was getting to the end of the 15th mile, I started to regain my strength and was able to do much better in the 16th mile and enjoyed the watermelon that was waiting for my cool down walk.

I found that my feet and socks were soaked by the 8 mile mark due to the warmth and humidity.

Followed this run with 18 holes of golf- with riding cart. Started to tire towards the end if the round.
