I went out and scoped out part of my next big run. I started at the back side of Diamond valley and did some trail running. It was sprinkling when I first got going and didn't think I would be able to go very far. The mud was bad abd had to stop and keep knocking the mud off my shoes. Once I got up the first climb the trail dried out and was pretty descent. I kicked up 6 head of dear on the run.
I am hoping that the rain doesn't come because I plan on running this same trail in the morning but extend it out to the Turkey Farm Road and all the way home. If the rain comes I may just enjoy a day at home since I have my 40 miles in for the week already. My planned Saturday run is for 20-22 miles.....I am hoping for dry in the morning. Today would have been a perfect chance to take this run but I had no way of getting a ride back to my car until 4pm or so and needed to be back home to pick my son up from school earlier......oh well. |
