One Thousand Percent

Emount of our bodies that was covered in Gnats by the time we were done: 1000%
Humidity percentage this morning: 1000%
Effort I put in to today's run: 1000%

One thousand percent pretty much sums up today's tempo run. I ran my butt off, and Damon, Jason and Charles did too.
The run was completely un-scientific as we just ran by feel... Once we got to what we thought was 3 miles, we picked up the pace, and kept it for apparently about 7 to 7.5 miles.

Damon had his GPS, but says he didn't stop it entirely at all waters stops, so several of these splits would be faster in real time. Regardless, we put in hard effort and were completely dead by the time we got back.
Especially in obnoxiously bad humidity.

1 - 9.25
2 - 8:38
3 - 8.25
4 - 7.44
5 - 7.12
6 - 7.11
7 - 7.05
8 - 7.07
9 - 7.04
10 - 7.18
11 - 7.09
12 - 9.47
13 - 8.57

Distance: about 13 and a half.
