Thursday

My trail running group suggested doing a trail run on Thanksgiving morning.  It was a night off for me, but I still try to keep at least a semi-night shift sleep cycle, so I stayed up to 0230 then fell asleep.  Got up at 0600 and got to the forest by 0700.

Smaller group, maybe 8 or so of us.  And it was freakin cold.  I think it was 25 when I left the house, and it was probably colder out in the woods.

We decided to run a little different route than the usual outer loop.  4 of us included the hardest section in the forest, which adds on about 3/4 mi.  Felt pretty good.  Finished maybe a couple minutes behind the three really fast guys, but in front of the rest of the group.  And considering I caught up and passed the rest of the group to finish in front of them, I was happy.  Totaled about 9mi and I did it in 1:13.
