August 19th

9 miles at Windy Hill Open Space Preserve

Decided to try out some new trails today. This one turned out to be better for hiking than running. 3.5 miles straight down and then 4.5 miles straight up. Missed a turn at the Razorback Trail and went in the wrong direction for a mile. Had to do a tiny bit of Gallowalking on the brutal 1600 ft. climb between 3.5-6 miles. Not a terrible run, but probably won't do it again.

Followed up the run with a burger and beer on the deck at Alice's Restaurant, this biker diner (yeah, that's right, a "biker diner") in Woodside and then a few pitchers on the patio at Alpine Inn with the usual crew.

Next week will be a tough week for running. Will probably be able to get in 45-50 in 6 runs. Still kind of drained from the busy week and donating blood.
