Went out today not really knowing where to run. I just wanted something new. I ran from home to the new trail leading to Sun River. Dropped off the trail at the Calvary Chapel and went out to the new overpass and tried to run out on the road they are building...got kicked out so I ran into Sun River. I found the trail head for the Ranger Bart trail. Ran out into the desert for a 7 miles. looping back I ran into a swarm of bees.....crap!!!!! I turned back real fast running away and then ran into the sage brush and hillside and looped around them. Man did I run fast through that area. Like "Fast running waters" LOL That totally freaked me out.  I got around them.... That almost sucked big time. I am worn out from the heat and pounding but the calves feel great!

Good to hear about the calves. Not good to hear about the bee's. Knock on wood but I've never been stung by a bee... yet.

Way to go on a longer run!

Didn't you have bee issues just the other day?

That swarm of bees scared the crap out of me.....especially when they started hitting me in the head and back. luckily my awesome speed got me out of trouble....LOL
