Aahh, gotta love those 4am runs!

Sunday, I went out with the local run club and did a 2 hour trail run on the Clackamas River Trail. It was a beautiful sunny day. I'd never been on that trail before and it was amazing. Views of the river, and lots of waterfalls along the way. Very challenging trail with few flat sections and lots of uneven footing, so it was a real effort for me. I enjoyed it, but OOPS, Sunday was supposed to be my rest day.

Monday morning, I had an hourlong speed workout on the treadmill. I thought I would totally suck wind due to the effort on Sunday, but in fact, I ran all my intervals at a higher speed for the given heart rate targets. Go figure.

My legs definitely felt sore last night after hard efforts 2 days in a row!

12 mile long run on the calendar for tomorrow a.m.
