Beverly Park

Notes

Finally got a long run in. Also finally accomplished one of my goals since moving to Fairfax: to run from our place to Beverly trails and back. I would only do this for a long run as it takes about 3 miles via the shorter route. And the shorter route isn't too fun as it's on a highway with little shoulder. I was manageable today, probably should have just taken the longer, less-busy route but I wasn't sure what I'd be capable of today. My legs have been feeling fine but also ate poorly the past few days.

Today started a bit rocky, maybe more anxiety from the road and doing a long run. Things felt much better as I got to Edgewood. I think I've done the tunnel/bridge/tunnel to cross the highway before with Kyle Heineman many years ago (who I also just saw last night for the first time in years). The trails were great, especially as I was just enjoying them, not trying get the most duration I could out of them. Gravel, random bike path that no one uses, and then back home (once again on the shorter route as I was happy with 100min.
