Great Morning for a trail run. Sunny and cold. I've gained an appreciation for ATV riders. They mash down the crusty snow. One section had no ATV tracks. Running through that section with 6" of crusty snow was exhausting, but it sure got my heart pumping. No other runners out this morning. I did pass a lady out walking with her dog "Sadie". As I approached, she said "Don't worry about her, she doesn't bother anybody", then as I passed she yelled excitedly "Sadie, come back here. SADIE, COME BACK". I just kept running hoping Sadie wouldn't bite me. I'm looking forward to next Saturday, first race in 2010. |
