Friday I did 6.5 miles. What a great run! It was late and I ran down the highway through the country. Something about running from the city and the bright lights motivated me and gave me lots of energy. (Lil Jon screaming in my ear also had me stoked!)
Yes, I really enjoyed Friday's run. The feeling I got can't be put into words. It was so great that I danced-ran the last .5 miles!
And today. I found the perfect trail. Buckeye Trail! It was hell! HELL! My legs are going to be sore tomorrow. It has everything that I have been looking for in a trail. The dirt is pretty much sand-it was almost like running on the beach in spots. The rocks are abundant and loose from the many horses that tromp along (it is a horse trail.) The hills and the downhills are plenty and really made it a hard run! Perfect for training...
My breathing was heavy!!! It literally was one hill after the other on this trail and I had to be sure that I didn't slip or trip over rocks and roots when I descended. Oh yes, today was a great run. I will be seeing a lot of this trail over the next couple of weeks...
(I ran between 4-6 miles on this trail - I ran for 60 minutes. This trail doesn't have mile markers...so I'll have to wear my watch to keep track...)
And my meal was cooked over a fire tonight. It tasted great! Just what my body needed.
I feel good. More later.
