Short morning at work, then a drive to have a late lunch / early dinner with my folks.

September 26th, 2020 - The New England Trail
Bear Hole, McLean & Whiting Street Reservoir Marathon
I completed my 61st Marathon today in 6:00-hours (5:49:23 moving and 9:37 stopped).
The route began a little after 7 a.m. in Bear Hole Reservoir, and once connected to the New England Trail (Metacomet) I also passed McLean Reservoir and the Whiting Street Reservoir for a gps measured 24.3-miles. Google Earth listed the total ascent at 4195', with a likewise total descent.
It was in the low sixties for temperature at the start, but very high humidity (80%+). Once the sun came out the temperature hit 80-degrees.
I felt very good throughout the run, but my feet and legs were sore for the last hour from the multitude of rocks that exist along much of this trail.
