This is one of my favorite trails since it is very scenic, mostly shaded and we get to run by the reservoir. Started the run early morning with the larger group. Some experimentation with my new fuel belt and it makes me happy that I ain't running with my iPod anymore, rather enjoying running with my buddies. Need my watch to time the run and pace myself. Had a slight pain in my right achilles, wonder if the calf hurt has moved down to achilles now. The knees felt some discomfort towards the end and after the run. Guess, I need some cross training and strengthening for my knees.
But more importantly, we finished strong. 7-miler seems longer if you are running by yourself but the team makes it seem like a breeze. It is challenging to organize the runs on this trail operations-wise, especially the water stops, with no close access to road, etc. Hats off to the Ops team and all the volunteers that make it happen!
Go Team Asha!
