Well, it's been a rough couple of weeks. At least training wise, otherwise life is good. I had some swelling in my knee after the last round of long runs and then I got the flu, which was nice. At least I lost a couple pounds. I'm back on track after a slow start to the week, so let's go.

The trail run this weekend felt great. It's a good sign that I'm headed in the right direction. The schedule this weekend was supposed to be a two hour run Saturday, and a 40 minute run on Sunday. I just packed it all in one day plus some, and I'm paying for it now. It's been a very lethargic, heavy feeling Sunday. I need to learn some restraint.

Making the climb out of Dry Creek early Saturday morning.
