Semi longish run with the Circle. Logan tried to ruin it for everyone by being weird. I don't know what his deal is.;) Nonetheless it was a special morning running down our home marathon course. We haven't been on it all summer and it's past time. Just took it EZ all morning. The main focus was to just get in the downhill running. We started in Veyo and ended at the church on Bluff. It was dark for at least 10 mile of the run. None of us had headlamps (we never do). There was construction barrels everywhere and LOTS of northbound traffic. Like more than I can ever remember. About a mile atop Veyo hill I was thinking "one of us is gonna run into one of these barrels".  Because it's dark... and we are dodging cars. Well about 2 steps later I slammed into on. Full stride. No heads up. Faceplant. Both hands ended up bloody. I used a four letter word. And the guys laughed. Hard. #effingAholes ;) Other than messing up my only two hands pretty good. I'm fine. So don't worry. Picked myself up and got back on.

Finished the run at a 6:45 avg. Laxi Taxi morning. Glad to get the run in.
