Did my second trail run today. I avoided the wet part of the trail, so I had to descend the very steep trail in the beginning. Did not run the very top part, but after awhile, the descent becomes more gradual. Because the entrance to this trail starts about a 1/3 of a mile closer to my house than the wet part, I ran the part where the trail goes into the next town, through a field, and then becomes a short trail again. It's very hot today, but, I went out at around 8:30, maybe 8:25, and being in the woods was very nice. I would say I ran about the same percentage of time as last time, but I took a couple more walk breaks going back up the steep climb. Probably not such a good idea to run so soon after breakfast, but I was on a time schedule. Still somewhere between 2.5 and 3 miles.
I have to look at the You Tube video of doing the loops through the extra lace hole thing; my right shoe is still slipping a very teeny bit, even with the laces put through the extra hole. My right foot is almost half a size smaller, so this makes sense. Also, waiting for some new socks to wear with these shoes. There's a nice web site called Sock Addict...
