week 11 - hot and humid

As the day getting shorter, it's also getting darker in the morning. I missed my bus, I thought I was on time but I think the bus came in a little early. I ended up taking a cab.

I knew it's going to be hot and humid day so I brought my new hydration belt. It's very important for me to stay hydrated. They were couple of people in my group who dropped out in a few miles. I wasn't sure why, maybe it's because of the heat. Running 16 to 20 miles in the heat is very tough.

My performance last Saturday was amazingly satisfactory. I finished the last mile running up the hill. I was a bit tired at the end but I felt really good.

After my long runs, I soak my legs in an icy cold baths for about 15 minutes. The ice keeps the inflammation under control. It's very soothing and it's very relaxing.

See you next week. Happy running.
