Today’s run: 5.15m, 57:03 min. We ran at 10:30 a.m. down the Bethany highway on one of the hottest days of the year. I drank too much water at the halfway point and felt like throwing up most of the last mile. Feeling very hardcore.

If I hadn’t been running with one of my beach companions, I probably would have quit this run at 4 miles or so. Hurrah for peer pressure.

After the run we went for a swim in our full running outfits. It was glorious.
