Rand out of water at 12 miles went in an air-conditioned building to refill my fuel belt-the last 2 miles sucked. But I meade it. Never go in anywhere air-conditioned until your finished!IronWaddlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02065549723453997421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7952535.post-1121643464979771082005-07-17T18:37:00.000-05:002005-07-17T18:37:00.000-05:00I'm just sitting here thinking how wonderful it wo...I'm just sitting here thinking how wonderful it would be to be able to buy beverages on one of my long runs. Unless I want to loop past my house - which I refuse to do, because I'd get snagged into something and the run would be over - whatever I start with on my person is what I've got for the duration of the run. Thank GOD all the water/gatorade bottles in my belt pack get lighter as the run progresses...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7952535.post-1121642376415290842005-07-17T18:19:00.000-05:002005-07-17T18:19:00.000-05:00We started our 14 miles at 5:45 am just to beat th...We started our 14 miles at 5:45 am just to beat the heat. Temperature here in Fort Worth, TX, 73 degrees and 90% humidity. And it only got worse as the sun came up. We were given our course directions, there would be water every two miles.<BR/>After 5 miles we realized we were lost. 9.4 miles before we found the water.<BR/>Some time you just have a bad run.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
