whoa, from 37 to 39 in 2 hours!?

This last Saturday I did my final long run prior to the tapering phase of my training.

It was about 15 miles and, remarkably, I was able to do 3, 5 mile loops all at faster paces each time (a progression run).

More remarkable was the temperature...

I started at 8am or so and it was 37 degrees... By the time i was done (an unspecified amount of time later) it had gone all the way up to 39 degrees.

Well, should NYC be really cold on race day... hopefully this will have prepared me. If not, I'm joining the Navy SEAL's...
