Race preview: Too Hot to Handle 15K

WHERE ARE WE GOING?
Dallas

WHEN?
Sunday, July 10

WHY?
Too Hot to Handle 15K

NO REALLY, WHY?
It's something to do. If I have to go all summer just slogging out 90-degree, 20-plus-mile long runs every Sunday, I'll go nuts.

WHO ELSE IS GOING?
The 15K and 5K together ought to come pretty close to the 3,000-runner cap, with about half in each event.

WHAT'S THE FORECAST?
Hot... hotter than Mila Kunis baking a pie in her underwear.

HOW DO WE WIN?
I can compare this to the 15K I ran in Sherman last September in roughly equal miserable conditions. That course was tougher and I faded significantly to a 1:10:39 finish. I think anything starting with 1:08 will make me happy.
