Humid Run

Not all runs will be fun. Today I was scheduled to run 20 miles as part of my training for Fort Worth Marathon coming up on November 10th. As soon as I walked out the door I knew it would a hard run. It looked like it was going to rain and very humid. The temperature outside at 7:30 a.m. was in the mid 70s. I filled my 6 oz. water bottle with cocoanut water and hoped for the best. I made myself start slower than usual cause it's been a while since I've run 20 miles. However, the humidity got the best of me. I never stop when I run (rather slow my pace before I walk) and I had to stop and refill my water bottle cause I was starting to feel dehydrated. Towards the end my pace really got slow and some guy who was passing out ice cold water bottles to people who where participating in some walk saw me coming and asked if I wanted a water bottle. I of course said, yes, thanks so much! He must of seen how bad I needed that cause I was drenched in sweat! Oh well, not all runs will be happy runs, but I will finish!
