Had a really fun run this morning with Jun and Aaron K. on the BST. We met at 7:00, and Aaron wasn't feeling all that well, so after a few minutes he had to stop and take care of his issues, and Jun and I kept going. The trail was covered in snow, but it wasn't as slick as the last time we ran it because the snow was fresh. After about a mile I also started having issues with my stomach and I had to stop (I'll spare you all of the details) for a few minutes while Jun moved way ahead. After I resolved my issues it took about 5 minutes to catch up to Jun, who had stopped to wait for me. The mountain was completely enveloped in clouds, and the fantastic view we had for the first 20 minutes was gone.
At about mile 3 my knee started to bother me, and when the snow got deeper I actually had to walk a bit because it was hurting. We turned around at mile 4, and then on our way back we ran into Aaron about 3 miles from the cars. He looked a lot better, and he and Jun motored ahead for the rest of the run, while I was much slower. My knee was really sore, and it was really hurting the last mile. I think it was too much up and down on the sledding hill the other day, so I will take it easy for a few days.
It was a really fun run, and the perfect way to start my Saturday. |
