Blowout

The Newtons blew open on my trail run today. The metacomet trail is a shoe eater.

Bimbler's Bluff 50k

Ok...so instead of the Hartford Marathon I am stepping it up a notch. Not sure if it's a good thing or bad thing, but it's more of an adventure thing. I am signed up to do a 30+ mile trail run in Guilford on Oct 25.

I've been hitting the trails of late and actually loving it big time. It's so much more fun than road running and you totally get Zen after about 20 minutes of dodging ankle-breaking boulders, tree roots, hopping stumps and red lining hills. I was out for 1.5 today and probably only covered 6 miles so 30 is going to take a really long time. But screw it. I don't care about my time. This is a true endurance and watch your ass race.

Time to get out in the woods.
