To the Lake and Back!!!
Ahhhh, love these days. Nice and rainy, not too crowded on the trails and I found something new! When I moved to the place I am in now I made a bit of a sacrifice. It wasn’t quite as close to the lake as I hoped. My goal was to have a trail that was right on the lake that I could jump on. Our place is only 5 miles from the lake by car which is not bad at all but it wasn’t what I had wished for. Everything else about the place was amazing. Well, today my wish came true.
If you’ve been following along on this journey you know that I recently found a dirt trail near my house. I’ve taken it a couple miles out and I mad it about three and a half miles out yesterday. Today I made it four miles which put me at the lake!!!!! That’s a mile shorter than by car or running on the road which gets me more miles on the lake. I WAS STOKED!!! Long runs will never be the same. I went 12 miles and got 1,200 feet of gain which is not too bad either.
So, now the place is complete. It literally has everything I wanted in a house. Today was a good day. On top of that I made some mexican food for dinner. That is one of the biggest things I miss in this quarantine…..some good mexican food. Tonights food was so good. Some home made rice and carne asada. Oh so delicious.
Ok, time to go do some bedtime yoga with the boys and relax. Here are some images from today and the details of the run.
