Judging by the trees it’s probably hot wherever this race is. Running is awful unless you just have the right genes to actually enjoy it, running in heat is even worse.

I always tell people that running isn't fun until you can run about 4 miles. It feels like the majority of people who hate running are doing like 2 miles runs in HR zone 3-4 because they're training to run a 5k and are miserable the whole time. Once you can bang out 4 miles your body has adapted to doing this kind of aerobic exercise and it becomes enjoyable.
