I need to learn some lessons of the danger of overconfidence...a perfect day in every way..sunny and not windy....but, and a big but it is....over 80 degrees by 10 AM. Dehydration is a tough obstacle to overcome and I had a good case today. Once your mouth is bone dry, you are in the danger zone. Did the 16 but could not keep in enough fluid to keep from cramps and fatigue. It was gorgeous out but so effing hot for that many miles.
Mental disipline is waning too as I think I have peaked in my training...time to run the race before I lose the will. 2 weeks to go from here. Shin splints today also...they aren't good.
