I actually have no idea how far we went. first we ran around the mountain to the Delta sign by the freeway, but then turned back not seeing where to go, so we went back to the beginning of the trail around the mountain, and turned up into the gated neighborhood. I don't think that's where we were supposed to go, but believe you me, it was easily among the more difficult and beastly runs of my life. there was this huge steep and long hill in the neighborhood, we followed that and then we saw a dirt trail leading up a mountain, so we "ran" up that (with a handful of breathers, never walked, but stopped to catch my breath.) we got up to about the height of the towers, but it was kind of on a different hill, so then we turned around and went back the same way we came. um so yeah, super lost, and terribly difficult. on the plus side, my foot hasn't been hurting me too much yesterday and today, it's just mostly my ankle now, which is better than before! My blog posts are turning into novels, I'll have to work on that. afternoon was really good. I don't think I was super fast, but I didn't feel slow today, even this morning (besides on the mountain). I think when I feel slow is when I get discouraged the most, but today was really good. I got chocolate milk with Devin and friends afterwords and then went swimming at Megan's, I love doing things with people on the team, they're the best!
