15 miles this morning. Was slightly cooler than the race last week but no shade, and we took it pretty slow. Slower than expected for the second half, actually, as there is a 71-year-old man who runs with our group who was not dealing with the heat well, and I didn't want to leave him alone. So there were a few walk breaks, and that was perfectly fine by me!
Experimented with "gatorlytes" this morning. Worth looking into for those who also drink diluted gatorade - adds back electrolytes and some sodium without adding extra sugar. Seemed to work pretty well!

Too hot too early and too much humidity. I try to keep my short runs inside on the treadmill, but I just can't stomach 3 hours on a treadmill. I'm mentally tough, but not THAT tough.
