On September 26th at 7:25 am I began my run from Galax to Pulaski on the New River Trail. I used a Nathan hydration vest to carry my supplies for the trip consisting of about 3 liters of fluids and some food I took with me. It was foggy at the start and the temperature was very nice, I’d say around fifty degrees. The pace I had in mind was 8:30 a mile and I was doing very well with that up until mile 32 and my energy suddenly left and I had to do some walking and when I could run my pace was between 10 and 11 minutes a mile. I manage to make it to Pulaski and I was very happy to see the end.
