Backwoods Love
Made it back to the trail today. Got out a little earlier too so I wasn’t too stressed for time. The creek wasn’t so bad either……good enough to cross at least. I will be putting the crossing on my instagram story here shortly if you want to go check it out. It was a bit tough but nothing crazy. I am truly grateful for this trail. It is amazing and I am so happy that I found it. It brings me such great joy and happiness. That sounds a bit silly but its so true.
For some reason its tough for me too. There isn’t a ton of gain but I am constantly challenged when I am on this thing. I think its the ups and downs and twists and turns that constantly are coming at you. Its like a little roller coaster and I love it. Once I got to the lake things seemed much easier….and I think most of the gain tonight was there.
Needless to say I am hoping to get more of my runs on this trail now. I saw four people out there today in my 8 miles….not bad at all. I think this is partially due to the fact that the entrance is still pretty swampy and the weather hasn’t been great but I will take it for as long as I can. Here are some images from today.
