Hi guys, I haven't posted in this thread for awhile. Today I went for my first trail run. I live right up against the bush but I haven't tried trail running partly because I have to go up a 250 foot climb (elev) to get to the flatter area, and partly because I'm always a little bit worried about running alone in the bush. Anyway, today I finally bit the bullet and did a 6km run. It felt great. It was so nice to be out in the quasi-forest (parts are still burnt from the fires in 2003) and nothing bad happened. Maybe I can stop worrying and just do it!

Hope everyone is well, off to go do some TE reading.
