sparkler run 8/14

600am progressive run with the monday morning group. We did a 7.5 mile loop that included 4 mile trail run with a detour up and around the bouldin / barton hills area. First portion of run was easy and on the north side of the trail to congress and back to Rtex, second portion was over to B springs road and up through bouldin creek area to lamar on Mary, and last portion was Heather/bluebonnet back to R E Lee blvd and the springs. We had a strong group today that included Scott, Patrick, Jorge, Erine, David A, David V, Duane and Chad. Great camraderie and laughter, awesome way to start the week.

I felt good for the entire run, strong on the hills, in control. No real issues with ankle etc, legs felt tight at first but loosened up.

I am going to include stats from now on when i wear the HR monitor, for posterity.
