Forecast: Muggy CT Race

Life is like a ten speed bicycle. Most of us have gears we never use. ~Charles M. Schulz

The 10-day forecast for Lakeville, CT says high of 82, low of 63 with PM rain. And in the days leading up to the race, temps in the 80s and lots of rain. Looks like it's going to be a muggy race.

There are around 80 runners registered for the half--mostly from the New England area, but a few scattered from WI, MO, FL, and SC. Nice small group.

Race is Sunday. Will spend Saturday in CT. Looks like hiking is an option. Though I don't want to overdo it, places like Bear Mountain and Lions Head look promising. The abundance of peaks to hike in the area is probably in direct correlation to the hilliness of the course. Again, I'm in for (and hopefully up to) a challenge.

Know of any other options for activities around Lakeville or Hartford? Please comment.
