July 13th, 2015–Day 8 Mammoth Cave, KY to outside Nashville, TN

I woke up at six and seriously contemplated a run, but thought I should give the family a little longer to sleep just in case I woke them in my attempt to sneak out.  Then I awoke at seven with a vivid nightmare about Cody and I knew it was time to get up.  I went for a run to the amphitheater, visitor’s center, down and a nature trail, and then to the historic entrance of Mammoth Cave. It was a nice perk to go near the cave entrance and feel the natural air conditioning coming out of the cave as I was sweating before my run even began at seven in the morning. We were longing for summer back at home.  We found it!
