First time getting to run this whole week. I got sick at the beginning of the week and had to miss our first meet which sucked. Ethan called me up and asked if I wanted to do some trail running with him and Claire. I was down so I met at his house then we picked up Claire. We drove up Birch canyon and started running up the mountain. So early in the run I already felt out of shape. I was out of breath and just didn't feel to great. Ethan was hauling up the mountain so I stayed with Claire. We stopped at the top of every ridge to look out over the valley. The view was sick. When we got to the very end ridge we took a break for a bit and tried rolling rocks down the mountain which was super fun. On our way back we got some awesome downhill which felt really nice. I felt awesome to start moving fast again after a week of doing nothing. When we got back to the car we did 3 more miles up Smithfield canyon which was fun. Claire invited us over after the run for a snow cone, and her mother made Ethan and I a sandwich so that was cool. Glad to be back at it again.
