I felt awesome. My dad was with me. We went out first on the road to check out the fog on the lake, and we saw what looked like White, Blue Herons flying through the lower ravines that were filled with fog. It was like a page out of Chinese Folk Lore. Then we explore the trails (what used to be farm roads before the park was a park)... I spent the last 15 minutes on some new Mountain Bike Trails they have out there... Single track and lots of rocks and roots. Great stuff to distract me from the achiness of the end of a long long run. second longest run of my entire life. Next time I go out there I can get in a solid 18miles on the trails without over lapping once!

When we got back Dad and I made "Blueberry Protien Pancakes" Like the normal thing only with an egg white and some protien powder. They were delicious.

Enjoyed reading your blog and your background today. You evidently have natural talent and I hope you continue injury free so you can enjoy it. Nice going with the long run!
