Florence, KY-

After spending the night in Florence, KY, I ran here in the morning before I left to go home. I was really tired from staying up all too late last night and getting up all too early this morning, dehydrated, and nauseous from not eating particularly healthy last night. It was also way hotter this morning than I had anticipated.

Still, the change in scenery was sort of cool and that was the main reason why I structured things to run this morning here rather than later in the afternoon at home. I followed the streets around the hotel for a while, and was somewhat disappointed by the strip-mall-esq terrain, but eventually ended up running through neighborhoods along a street called Hopeful Church Road. I was also somewhat surprised that Hopeful Church is Lutheran rather than Baptist or non-Denominational megachurch, etc. I planned to run 31:30 out and come back the same way, which meant I turned around after running all the way up a huge hill. It was really hilly here. The water tower in the town said on it, "Florence, Y'all".

I enjoyed the run in a new place, and then spent most of the day driving home. I had a flat tire so it took a couple hours longer than planned. Luckily, I had nothing I needed to do when I got home so it didn't matter that I lost some time.
