I did the Crest trail with Leslie and Laurie this morning and did about 17.3 miles there. It was great running weather - not too hot. We waited at the top of Puke Hill for the 'men on bikes' that were with us - then didn't see them again after that. I was enjoying the trails and started feeling pretty good, so took off on my own after about 3 miles. The wildflowers were great, butterflies and hawks were gorgeous, even got called an ultramarathoner (yes!). I think the from about mile 8-11 I had this big grin plastered across my face. When I made it to Millcreek Canyon, didn't see anyone else from our party, so started running down the canyon until Les and Harold picked me up.
I picked up a knee strap to try today and didn't feel any pain during the entire run.
One of those days that make all the hard days worthwhile.
Tonight I walked 4.7 miles to Bajio and the grocery store. My knee was a little sore. |
