Tha Thang:
Goal: Run a half marathon in two parts
Part 1 at 5:00am: 7.05 miles at about 77 minutes total.
Part 2 at 4:30pm: 7.11 miles at about 88 minutes total. Much slower due to heat and general exhaustion
COT:
AAR: very poor idea to split the distance in two, then spend all the time between walking doing chores and family activities. Also poor idea not to bring electrolytes for second half. But feels great to have accomplished 13.1 (plus some) in a single day. Onward toward 13.1 in a single go.
Spent some time reflecting before heading home – major cramp in lower shin, so didn't have the option of driving home immediately. Thought about how shocked H.A.L. from a year ago would be. Thought about how grateful he'd be for the fellowship and encouragement and strength that has come from F3. Thought about how much sweat and weight and poor life choices old H.A.L. shed. Said a quick prayer and headed out.
