I was visiting friends in the northwest suburbs of Chicago. A request on the V-Boards yielded Busse Woods Forest Preserve as a place to do my long run this morning. The main loop is 7.7 miles long. This is mostly shaded with few long open stretches. My original plan was 16 miles by running the loop twice and a little. The first lap went well with only one quick stop for fluid balance. A mile into the second lap the buffalo burger from last night caught up with me. If I wasn't also tight on time, I would have finished anyway. I walked back to my car which just finished the 10th mile. While there appeared to be water pumps in several places around the loop, I bought water bottles and carried them.

I had no issues beyond the gastro. The compression shorts worked well.
