Sunday Long Run
Conditions - 27C and 80% humidity, I normally hit the TM when it's this bad with the Humidex...but the forecast had some raining coming, and was hoping that I would get cooled off by some "on and off" rain during the run.......
20 miles - 2:39:31 (7:57/m)
First 20+miler in over 2 years.....first 16 miles were okay, but then the heat and humidity took its toll and made the last 4 quite the challenge. Glad this is done!
Drank 3 bottles of water, 3 bottles of Powerade and 1 gel it get through this.....where I normally, in cooler conditions, I don't fuel anywhere near this level.
...as for the predicted rain...it never showed up....!
