I ran a 5 mile hill run today with a stiff, but pain free, hip. I enjoyed the run even though the lack of rain has made the temperature rise. People unfamiliar with the Southeast have no idea what heat and humidity we have to deal with... in late September!
We had a large group this morning and the consensus amongst the group is that you push out of the get up Jefferson at your own peril. Many of these people have been running these roads for years and we would all do well to learn from their experience.
This race course allows for ample chances to make up time once the course levels out. The first three miles of this race have significant hills, then it mostly levels out until the last three miles. This layout gives us seven miles to make up time and even bank time for the future runs.
I will run the course tomorrow for the first and last time before the race. I will also post pictures of the hills as you can only realize how terrible Adams Avenue will be if you see it looking down at you.
