Most races I run I come to a point where I ask myself why. Why in the world do I do this????? Today was really bad, that point literally came 3 minutes into the race. 10k, heat index 94, humidity high 80s.
I finished.
It was not pretty.
I made my goal time, just barely. None of my southern friends would run with me and now I know why! Trying to relive all of my fun fourth memories of races with sisters, friends and family just didn't work today. I am thinking a new tradition is in order of only running fall, winter and spring races here in the beautiful south.

Congrats on making your goal time under such challenging circumstances!! I like your idea to look for new traditions too!!
Whoa! Good for you! I don't know that I could do that. I go with Doran after work sometimes in the heat, however I am on the bike carrying his water while he is sweating away.
What time did they start the race? Noon?
Way to finish! you are awsome!!!
That sounds horrible. I remember when I used to run :)
Yeah for finishing! Boo for humidity! I agree it's time to give up for a few months. I've been sweating it out on the trainer for the last few weeks. It's brain numbing but more tolerable than 115 degrees or 4 AM rides.
