Well, that could have gone better. Nice to share some miles with Mark and Ryan, at least while I could hang. Probably should have checked the weather before agreeing to an 8:30am run, kinda thought it would be like yesterday morning, but I was wrong, way warmer. 

Mapped out a 13.5 mile run, which seemed appropriate as it would put me in the mid-60s for the week. Wasn't feeling great from the start, but not too bad. Pretty much made the decision between 8 and 9 that I'd head straight back on Depot and do 12. Mark and Ryan were pulling away, which made stopping all the easier. Took a breather at 10.36, and then again at 11.19. Figured I could run it in from there, but then decided to just call it a day at 11.5.

First gel was fine, Passionfruit NeverSecond. Second gel was less fine, Lemon Lime Sis Beta. Stomach didn't feel great at the end, although the lack of breakfast/ pre-run hydration, and the slight incline in the sun going up Depot probably didn't help either. 

Still ending up with 64.7 on the week plus a 9.5 mile hike. Two weeks til Sydney, so not overly disappointed with the day, but 12-13 would have been nice. Pushing 80 degrees and 80% humidity at the end, so I'm really not surprised with how I struggled. Fitness is there, especially once the heat and  humidity cut me a break.
