Calm Before The Snowstorm Run




Pre-Run

 

…it's testing time in maryland public schools and news of the looming “Snowquester” has me eagerly anticipating a trail run…

 

Course

 

…stuck to the trails: orange to blue then the green loop back to blue and a finish on the yellow trail back to base…

 

 

Nuts & Bolts

 

…sunny when I pulled out from campus but the storm clouds were rolling in to filter out the sun by the time I started running…it was a brisk 43 degrees…

 

 

The Run

 

...ran in bursts with hike breaks…kept pace under 11min/miles…trails were sloppy in places but in overall good shape…5.14 miles in 55:49…

 

 

Random Thoughts

 

…a snow day off would be welcome!

 

 

Wildlife

 

...scattered deer roaming in the woods on a couple of occasions

 

 

Recovery Beer

 

IceHouse Edge…Good Snow Beer!
