6 - Grapevine. Nice night for a run. Felt good with just a little soreness from Saturday. Thought I might have done myself in earlier today as I went for a hike. While climbing up a cliff I stepped down on a sandstone ledge and the whole thing collapsed under me. I slid down a ways and all the sandstone that had broken away landed on my left shin. Got some really good scrapes and two golf ball size lumps for my troubles but nothing bad. Fortunatly it didnt effect my running at all tonight.
Firestation with Grapevine extension. Beautiful full moon out, wonderfull temps and I felt great. Couldnt ask for much more. Well I could but I wont get it so this will do.
Fields past corn maze. Another great night for a run. Went easy and enjoyed the solitude. To bad its so crowded in the fields anymore. Miss the days when the only person you would see out there was the occasional farmer instead of 10,000 Escalades and Land Rovers.
Went all over trying to avoid roads with traffic as Ive had way to many close calls the last few nights. Parkway to the Maverik then back down to the river trail and out to the landfill and ran around out there then back. Thought the moon would be up to give some light on the trail but that wasnt the case until the way back and it was still pretty dark. I tried to throw some marathon pace miles in but after 3 that where way to much effort even with the down hill I called it quits on the fast. The legs were shot the rest of the run. Not a very good or enjoyable run. Glad its over.
