Week 7: the Trail Run

So, it's week 7 now. No more intervals. Also, my cousin is home from North Carolina and wants to be my running buddy, but she only runs trails. I'm not talking paved bike trails, I'm talking old country farm four-wheeler trails. Lots of hills, lots of rocks. But what they heck, why not switch it up. Woke up early to beat the heat and headed out to the trails. I had rained, so it was wet, but it was really fun! It was a greet switch up from my usual road route. The only problem was that I can't keep track of distance in the woods. So, we just went by time. Running with a stronger runner also kept me pushing myself. I almost gave up on some of those rocky hills, but I had to keep going because she was still going. We also pushed each other for the last minute of time. It was a great workout. Can't wait for the next one!
