Notes
I had some grand ambitions for this run as I was hoping to just cruise the trails forever. However, the trails were not nearly as nice as I'd hoped and I spent more time worrying about messing them up than just running (maybe I wouldn't have cared if Des Moines didn't have a few MTB trail Nazis [too harsh] that don't want anyone on trails if they're not completely dry).
Or course, I was probably also pretty tired and not used to the steeper uphills, so I'll still be happy with 5 miles of trails in February (actually, probably the bigger reason I was disappointed was I knew it was going to snow on Tuesday and I wouldn't have time to run on Monday, so no trail running for awhile again).
