trail running log

there may be enough posters who like trail running to have a thread separate from the rolling running thread.

i've chatted about my preferences and "style" elsewhere but i like short runs with a good uphill / downhill ratio so i can huff and cruise and get a lot of oxygen for 40 mins to an hour. highly technical / mountain peaks / long distances / races aren't my bag. i adore running on slickrock.

anyway, today felt like my first 'trail run' of the season. my daily, a woodchipped trail that follows a ridge above a 2-mile stretch of a dell, has melted enough that i can run on bare ground for 1.5 miles or so. sun, 42 degrees, clean air, glorious.
