July is a slow racing month for me. I like it that way though, as it can get quite hot in Wisco!! Milton Optimist Fourth of July 10K July 4, 2014 I have not run this race before and this year I felt silly knowing that I would be running that day anyway through Milton, so I signed up. It was a warm morning, but I wore my hydration belt with electrolyte tabs in it again. I knew that even though the race began at 8 that it would get hot. Plus we were running on country roads without much shade. This race starts and ends at our local high school and winds its way a block from my house! Beautiful neighborhood if I do say so myself! I wasn't sure if I would PR for this race as it was a Friday and I had trained hills the night before. But I went in with an open mind using this race as a training run for my next half marathon. I met some fun people along the course and paced with them for a bit. I took it easy and still managed a PR of 1:04:40!! I was pretty stoked wi
