tuesday - 8 miles on trail with 1 mile hill repeats
thursday - 17 miles on trail. so hot, hilly, hard, and with a headache to top it. but i made it. i started the first mile with hill repeats. read an article about down hill running and this is where i have the hardest time. so at miles 1, 5, 9 and 13 i repeated a climb and descend on a hill that is about 1 tenth of a mile. it got tedious but i felt more comfortable at the end of the run dealing with the downhill. the rest of the run was tough since it was hot and just full of hills.i'm realizing that it takes a lot longer to run trail. so trying to just forget my timing and focus on form. i've adjusted to no ipod on the trail. i'm just more comfy without it so i can hear my surroundings. the bonus of today - seeing a deer about 20 feet from me at mile 15.5!
saturday - 5 easy running miles. just good to get out and sweat!

I ran through a narrow trail path covered with flowering trees yesterday that reminds me of your photo. Great photo!
Great job, Kate! It will be here before you know it.
