BPA Trail. Met up with Nicole since she was around this area getting her team ready for Hood to Coast. It was rather hot today and it was a tough tough run for both of us. The heat got us and the not used to running on the hills was hard. We started out running back behind soccer fields on shaded back trail to BPA trail and then usual route and back. Then cut back through shaded trail. Nicole had to split at soccer fields to meet team but I kept running out and back thru shaded areas. I explored the trail that goes to softball fields, used the restroom than ran a little more. Felt slightly better at end of run but I didn't have it in me to complete my 8 miles I was going for. I just was on a time crunch today as well. No noticable pain today in legs though:)
