Stomach/side cramped a little but I was able to stop for a sec and stretch arms over head and reach high to stretch it.

REALLY humid...NOTHING close to what I'll be training in down in Mexico, so I thought, "Suck it up buttercup!" And smiled....

Wore the asics and no socks, and my toe and foot felt great. Side cramped and neck too around mile 7. I kind of stetched to get it to go away and it felt better.

Originally, this was going to be an easy, steady, long run...but as I started, I felt good, and thinking about the stress of everything, I turned it into a go hard or go home. I did not go all out...I definately had more in the tank but I felt strong, which made me feel great.
