I knew that with higher humidity and temperature than my other runs this week that it would be a test of endurance today. I was right. I ended up with 18.2 miles for the total, but really the extra two-tenths was to get back to the neighborhood and also because I walked so much in the last mile up some big hills. I'm thinking about reversing the route next weekend since that last stretch is too much at the end of a long run.
Fortunately there were no equipment malfunctions today. If I'd lost a whole bottle of sports drink and half of another I wouldn't have made it.
In other news, guess I should actually register for this race. I almost did it last night but decided there was no rush since I needed to get through today's long run first.
