Adam's Running

Well my break is over and I woke up excited and ready to run. I went out and it felt harder than usual, but that is only to be expected after two weeks off. I ran up to the trail on the side of the mountain that runs by the three story park for most of my run. There was a lot of snow but it made it kind of fun. I got to my turnaround point at the last house and looked up and saw the greatest sledding hill ever. I ran up to it to check it out and it was sick. It was probably 200 meters long and super steep. I am probly going to hit it up later with my friend Will. AFter that I ran home. 

Today's run was terrible. It was pretty windy and it just froze a layer of ice over everything. I took the trail on the golf course and I ended up having to run in the two foot deep piles of snow on the sides the whole way. Once I finally got onto the trail up on the mountainside I was finally able to actually run because it was all just packed down snow. On top of it all I got a blister underneath my foot.

6 miles, had to cut the run due to the sun going down and lack of visibility, which would not be good with ice  patches everywhere.

Today I did a mountain run. I ran up to where it starts and the trail was all packed down so it was finally ready to run on again. It was one of my favorite runs I've ever done. I don't usually run with my iPod, but I was really not feeling like running so I figured that music would make it go by quicker. With music you really don't feel half the pain while running so I was just flying up and down this single track trail that runs along the mountainside. It felt good and I think I might do the same run tomorrow.

Did the same run I did yesterday. At one point I ran through a bunch of deer and I got so close I could have touched one.
