I have been able to get out the past couple days for some fantastic trail runs!! Over at the preserve the trails are snowpacked but very runnable. Over in the ABC the trails are bare and firm. It has been sunny but still chilly. This makes for nice firm terrain, not lots of mud.
Sunday I got out for hilly 5 miler. I've been noticing that I did way too much skiing this winter and not enough running. I'm totally fine with this. My legs on the other hand disagree. I felt pretty good although Shay did short rope me a couple times with his leash. Tuesday my legs were feeling really heavy but still decided to go for it because it was a pretty nice day. It felt like all we did was climb. After about 2 miles I started to feel better. We only ended up doing 4.6 but it was a good fun run. Yesterday I had nothing in my legs but after working in the yard the weather was so nice I got "fat tire fever". I broke the old "Y-11" out of the shed and took her for a spin, to the "old cement factory"!!! I had nothing in my legs! Nothing!! I was kind of pissed but it was so nice out I didn't care. The hills sucked and the descents were technical and sketchy with sections of ice and snow. It was fun!!
We're supposed to get hammered with snow tomorrow. My skiis are waxed, the skins are in my pack and I'm ready to go. I'll probably hit the resort for some runs and see how it is. Then I might swing by some stashes where I know there is still a good base. Hope you get to get out as well!!
ENJOY!!
