Sunday: 9.5 miles w/ Lil' Rhody Trail Race. Warm (Hot) weather. 10 minutes warm up. I went out a little too fast today. I was hoping to break 60, but I just haven't been running enough this last month. I shouldn't have worn my Kinarvas; they don't cushion/protect me from the roads. I started cramping on the last .9 road section. Fun day. 62:16, 59th place.
