Millican Summer Series Race 2
I skipped Race 1 two weeks ago, but I went to Millican this evening and ran Race 2 of the Millican Summer Series 5K Trail Run. As usual, the course was a little long according to my GPS. Hot and humid. Very technical course with lot of up and down embankments. Was worried about my leg collapsing going down the steep hills, so I took it easy and I stayed upright the entire course. Finished in 1:09:50.
Hot and humid
As expected for this time of the year, it is getting hot (90's) and humid. I went to the park in the middle of the afternoon and ran 3.5 miles, mostly on the trails.
