What used to take 57 minutes, today took 67 !! But I am just content that I was able to finish it.

Now for the recovery. Already started with Starbucks!!

In fact, this goes back fifteen years – around the time I had just started running. Running in Dallas area felt surprisingly easier than in Atlanta area. I am sure the flatness of the land had a lot to do with it. My guess is checking out all the new buildings that have cropped up kept me distracted from feeling tired too!

I had my neon clothes on !

– especially when the wind was on my face, but moment I stopped, it felt so hot that I had to dump all my layers. Sat in the sun while sweating (this was 26 degrees F) to catch my breath back.
