NW Gravel

Notes

Injury Note: Last Friday night my left foot started acting up again. It never hurts on a run but sometimes after laying down. I think I'm going to make sure I take a day off every week or 2 like I was doing in December.

Some fresh snow this morning after people would have shoveled, so I thought I'd be smart and wear my true trail shoes. That would not be a smart idea as it wasn't too much snow and actually a lot of sidewalks were cleared off.

Not wanting to run on pavement, I tried the bike path that isn't plowed in the winter. This was an even worse decision as there was more snow but mainly because it was uneven due to some tire tracks and the wind blowing.

So I settled on gravel, or rather, compacted snow. It was more slippery and hard than I would have preferred, but my best option. I was only shooting for 8 miles but made it 9 to get to the bottom of the hill. Though I didn't actually get 9 as my last mile included some walking to keep my bowels in check.
