Sharon and Vicki completed 12 miles- July 26th

We completed 12 crazy miles on Saturday. I say crazy because due to schedules we were not able to do the Smithville route with our club so I mapped a route from Pleasant Valley Baptist Church to Benson Place to shopping area around Flintlock and Hwy 152. Vicki had a camelback water pack and set it down in the bushes outside of Benson Place at about 5:45 AM and when we came back out of the subdivision someone had taken it. That was a problem to not have water on a 12 mile route. We walked back to the car and got some money and since Target was on our route we went there to get her some water. It took us a little longer but we did finish the full 12 miles in the heat. Starting at 5:30 am is still not early enough to beat the heat. Next week is 13 miles which will be just like the mileage for the 1/2 marathon. But after you've done 12 miles what one more mile?
