Well, what can I say-hot, hot, hot! I knew it was going to be a difficult day when I walked outside at 5:30 am and it was a steambox. I was obsessing all day yesterday about the heat and it hit me right away. It was very slow going and I knew I would be way behind it my time. I wasn't going to come close to my previous time so I just focused on finishing because I did have thoughts of not starting or just going with Tom at mile 10. I got to Wal-mart and Tom was there with cold water and Powerade just what I needed! I had run through some sprinklers throughout the course and people had hoses out for us. After mile 10 there was just so many people walking I couldn't believe it actually. They changed the end we used to go farther up and come into the fairgrounds very close to the finish-this year we turned in and had to go all the to the track where the finish was. I along with a lot of others stopped and walked-I did sprint to the finish and according to my watch finished in 2:58 but I also stopped it for the bathroom break and when I stopped with Tom. I was glad to be done and hoping that the humidity would go away by Saturday for the Mini in Indy.
-Stomach bothering me from the start
-Glad I took the back way to the fairgrounds-easy in and out
-Lost my bottle after the bathroom break-even went back and looked for it
-Glad the sun only came out a few times otherwise it would have been unbearable
