Ran the bike trails at the crack o' chickens. Felt pretty good the last mile and a half and dropped the hammer.

Ugh. 70 degrees, sunny and humid. I had to walk three times. Couldn't maintain even 8:00 pace. Somehow still got top 10 AG, partly because only 14 were entered in 50-54. It was BAD. About what I expected, given lack of training and lack of sleep. I gotta get the sleep figured out and get the training routine going.
