Ken's

Wow!!  What a great bootcamp this morning!!  Today we did the stuff I hoped we'd be doing.  Lots of running  and movement drills, stuff that seriously gets your heart rate up.
My hope is that everthing we're doing will help my knee come along.  Very interested to see how I'll be feeling for my scheduled 7 miler early Saturday morning.

Almost forgot about my 4 miler yesterday at Ken's in Bull Creek.  I left work a few minutes after 4pm yesterday not knowing where I wanted to run.  I had hoped to get in 7 miles somewhere.  One thought was to go home and do it on the roads but I really don't enjoy running in the hood in the afternoon.  Early mornings are much better.  Much more peaceful and no cars to contend with.
So, I considered the Dog Park and the 4 mile flat loop.  That trail really made sense because the bootcamp would most likely be legs the next morning but I've done that run a lot recently so I decided against.  So, I crossed the creek for the first time since we've had the rain and headed sort of toward old Kens'.  Since the asshole owner blocked off his part of the trail it's been hard for me to duplicate the 5.5ish mile run the club runs's on Sunday morning (If I wasn't such a drunken piece of shit Saturday nights maybe I could join them).  Instead I hooked a hard right once I got on the main trail after the creek crossing and worked my way onto a crazy hilly trail I'd been on a couple times a few years ago.  Man o man were those some tough but fun trails.  I did part of them and then connected with old Ken's, bushwacked my way over to a connection for the club run and then made my way back over to the first trail.  Wow, did I hit some crazy cool trails.  They were slightly rolling, very tight, very technical and a bit dangerous.  The trail is cut out of a very steep hill with one side dropping steeply and the other rising steeply.  This part of the trail is only .25 but a bunch of fun.  I can't wait to go back!!  That is all.
