Drank some water and 2 beers, had some fruit and a partial sandwich.

Training, slightly humid and hot, lack of sleep.

Event comments:

I was subbing in for my dad who suffered a hamstring injury at the last minute. Wasn't expecting to run 10k and wasn't fully trained to do it, plus the 4 hours of sleep on top of my watch being dead unbeknownst to me, I think I did okay.

The parking at the beginning was a bit of a cluster... but we made it ok and I got my bib and t-shirt.
