- Hot morning
- Dehydrated before the start
- Running with Jen kept things in perspective
- Started out WAY too fast
- Goose-bumps at 2 miles
- Increased walk interval (good: identified issue and made adjustments to plan /bad: the fact that there was an issue)
- Figured out Nathan Bladder (so long fuel belt)
- Consistantly walked last two miles
- Hydration levels were NEVER maintained
- Logged my goal of six miles (mileage is mileage -- run, walk, or crawl)
- FANTASTIC post-run potluck for Honoree Week (kudos to Amy's breakfast burritos)
- Spent rest of weekend sucking down fluids
So now what? I must get back into the routine of consistantly staying hydrated on a DAILY basis AND get back into a cardio routine on my cross-training days (M/W). AND...remind myself, that it's better to be learning from my stupid mistakes early in the season. Nope, this won't be happening again.

I know you were disappointed in yourself, but the fact that you soldiered on shows you're kick-ass and not one to be messed with!
Good stuff, J9. Better to end fast than to start fast! ;)
