I was very good last week and didn't run once so I could recover from UVM.  I did however cross train like crazy last week to maintain fitness.  This morning I decided to head out and do some trail running.  It turned into trail running, hiking, walking, and rock climbing and it was so much fun.  The first 2 miles I mostly ran and was able to do them in about 20 minutes.  Then the adventure began.  At one point I had to climb some rocks, but after making it to the top of the little mountain, I was glad to have made the climb.  It was beautiful up there. I headed back down a different way and got lost for a bit, but finally made it back to my car.  The last 2.5 miles took 45 minutes.

Total "run" 4.5 miles, 1 hour 5 minutes.

What a fun little adventure. Glad you're feeling pretty good.
