Memorial Day Trail Run

Ken and I ran early in the morning. We headed east and up a steep climb to Lake Islanjo and down the back side to Channel Road. We then turned west and connected with the Spring Lake trail then home for a 9.25 mile trail run.

When we arrived at Lake Islanjo and just beyond a clearing on the west side we spotted 5 male deer grazing in a meadow. They didn't get fazed at all.

On the back side heading for Channel Road, I almost stepped on this little rough-skinned newt. He stayed long enough for me to take a pic with my cellphone before crawling away slowly.

Business: 9.25 mile trail run in 75 minutes.
Splits are as follows:
Mile  1: ?:00 (0:0?:00)
Mile  2: ?:00 (0:0?:00)
Mile  3: ?:00 (0:0?:00)
Mile  4: ?:00 (0:0?:00)
Mile  5: ?:00 (0:0?:00)
Mile  6: ?:00 (0:0?:00)
Mile  7: ?:00 (0:0?:00)
Mile  8: ?:00 (0:0?:00)
Mile  9: ?:00 (0:0?:00)
Mile  9.25: ?:00 (0:0?:00)

Gut-check

Run. Eat. Sleep. Repeat.
