Sunday:
23.4 miles (4:25:52) 6400' vertical Abridged Skyline Traverse (SoBo, Bear, Green, and Flagstaff). Started at 6:00 and it was too warm already. I tried to conserve my one water bottle that I had to make last for the next 3+ hours until I got back to Chatauqua. When I got to Chatauqua I started up the road a few hundred feet to a water fountain that is just apparently for looks. Felt kind of pissed off running back down the hill to get water. I chugged two full bottles, then proceeded to feel like crap for the next half hour. Overall the run went well, I am going to start bringing two water bottles when its that hot.
