The last long run before the half

13.4 miles...about killed me. At mile 11, I felt that I was ready to finish, it was hot, really hot and I didn't have enough water to cool myself off. I threw the last in my bottle on my head just to cool me off. I am grateful that there will be stations during the half and I can slosh as much water as I need on my head to cool me off.

Stats:

Distance: 13.4 miles

Time: 2:30

Effort: High

Temperature: way too hot, around 70 degrees and the sun was baking me alive!

Liquids: 20 oz

Had a potty break and a stretch break at around 7 miles into the run.
