That's right. FAST miles. Nothing too incredible speed-wise, did 6 at dimple dell in 50:40. It felt sooo good to pick up the pace a little on the trails! I haven't done ANY intensity training since early Jan, and haven't done any on trails since before the snow hit. I could've picked up the speed more, especially on the downhills, but was still a little skeptical on my slightly wobbly knee. Knee felt fantastic, shin hurt at probably a level 3-4.
I downloaded music I haven't listened to since I was a pre-tween and listened to it while running. Slightly embarrassed by my playlist now. :)
For kicks I'm adding my hiking miles. I carried a backpack and helped kids move. Felt good to stretch the knee and shin on the steep talus.
