I knew it was going to be hot, but did not realize the impact it was going to have on my run. I had planned a new route. Packed plenty of hydration and fuel and the run still did not go as planned. I believe I had made it 6 miles before I had to start walking. Reached 11 miles and called my daughter to pick me up. Ran some errands then went to the pool and decided to finish the run that evening. Made it out for a 9 mile run and started way to fast. Well after 3 miles I was hit by a thunderstorm and after another couple miles, I was hit by another one. Needless to say I got the miles in, but it was not the pace that I wanted or in all one run.
