This morning I decided to abandon all my usual routes and try to run some new terrain. Specifically, I decided I would run up every hill that I would otherwise avoid. You think you know an area because you've seen the same things a lot, but even small tweaks can lead to new discoveries. So, I rambled around the U, upper Federal Heights, etc., with a few crazy trail connections (some very steep) in between everything. The concept for the run worked well. |
