I did my first 10K trail run on Saturday in Spruce Pine, NC. It was hot but I hear it was hotter up North. Very muddy, 4 stream crossings, lots of climbing, serious slick downhills, and lots and lots of friendly North Carolinians (when I passed her, one woman yelled, "you go, girl!" - that would never happen in RI.)

I finished 291 of 350 so not bad for my first time.

This week I will likely run 3 or four days, 3 miles apiece. I am riding too, so trying not to overdo it.
