RUN: 5.5 miles in a little over an hour. Really took our time, what was the rush?
It's October!! And what better way to enjoy a sunny, comfy-temp, trees-are-changing day? A trail run in Castlewood! I had a race the next day, so there was no need to hurry. Just enjoy it.
DoCo and I chatted along while running. I wasn't even paying attention to where I was, to my surprise we ended up at the base of the stairs when I thought we were at the north end of the park. If that's not the 2nd best think you could say about a trail run, then what it? (the first is a great trail race!).
We ran up the steps then saw the steep hill on Grotpeter. We get to do that three times! Three! Time to start stairs and steep hill training. I think repeats on the rez hill is a great place to start.
I packed in the afternoon. There wasn't much to pack, it's just a short race! But after pulling Frea off the bike rack and airing up the tires I had a moment of --Wow, is that really my bike!? I mean look at it! A beauty! :)
