Well this run was fine until the end. I was running the same 5 mile route I've run about a million times, but apparently some construction happened while I've been away in Pittsburgh and the little trail from Ridgewood to Kevos Pond is no longer there...it was just a bunch of mud where they're gonna build some houses. I blatantly ignored the "sidewalk closed" sign, seeing as there was no sidewalk to begin with, but this turned out to be a big mistake as I ended up having to 'run' through about 50 meters of mud. Luckily I made it out ok, but my shoes ended up a little worse for the wear and I won't be running that way again.

Ah, back to the old familiar routes I ran all the time in high school...

Trail running out at Port Gamble with my mom. I wore my O-shoes which are great on trails! Running with my mom is always interesting because she goes pretty slow on the uphills but the last mile and a half was downhill and we were booking it - 7:35 for the last mile. A good change of pace from my usual runs though, and I always appreciate trail running!

Felt so much relief since I finished all of my work and now I'm free for break!!!
