A good Long Run

≡ Category: Running |

Today, a small group of us, (Kim, Dave, Scott and myself) ran about 14 miles in the hills around China Camp and made the summit also.  Weather was perfect and except for a bunch of times we had to stop and find our way, it was a great run.  We were very strong, and once we got momentum going on the way down, we made really good time.  We saw a couple of deer on the way up (a fawn and her mother) and saw them also in the same place on the way down.  Running with shirt off and iPod on and carrying water, feeling the soft ground under my shoes and sun beating down, looking down at the Bay was just a great experience.

Of course, playing 18 holes in the afternoon on a tough course from the tips, was a bad idea, but this is what I did with Doug and a couple of his friends Ken and Chuck.

This was a good training run for the 50K Skyline to the Sea race in mid-September and we are going to try to go for 20 miles next weekend.
