Melissa and I hit the bike trail for a gorgeous run. This trail is on the property of manufacture that makes stems for bike tires. The owner of the company built an incredible bike trail behind the plant and lets the public enjoy running/mountain biking on the trails. The trail is challenging and technical at times. It makes for a very nice change of scenery. What I like about this trail is the fact the trail builders made a point to find every hill and then zigzagged the trail so you could hit the same hill a couple or more times. Good training!
Since Melissa has been slacking in her training we kept a conservative pace and took walk breaks when needed. I love running with this woman. Her sense of humor and great personality makes for such an enjoyable run. She has her first half marathon this weekend so we decided to do the short loop rather than the long one. I've actually not done the long loop so I'm looking forward to that. |
