Creshiem Valley Trail to Wissahickon Valley Trails - 9 miles, averaged 9:31
First run post-marathon before 2:00. Got out around 11 and played on the trails as Megan had an online meeting. In a few places I would say this wasn't quite trail running. I ski-stopped down a loose-soiled ravine, using some thin, folded over trees for help. I also did some light rock climbing. I was pretty beat climbing back up the T-Rex's back (it's a street called Rex, which is part of an old carriage trail system. It's quite steep. Some days it is like climbing up the back of a T-Rex). I would estimate that this effort was equivalent to 13 or 14 miles on the road.
