Around the sun 38 times
Today marks my 38th birthday. We’re long past the days I could confidently say my age without thinking about it. How time flies! Anyway, I spent the day out running in the San Leandro Watershed. This is Run No. 3 on my super fast ramp up from not running at all to attempting the Burning Man Ultramarathon in three months. I did 6 miles 12 days ago, then 10 miles a week ago, and was aiming for 14 today. Due to confusion around which trails are closed to the public, I made some modifications, but it worked out at 15.8 miles. The only other problem was I expected overcast skies but got completely sunny instead, and I ran out of my 1.7 L of water in the heat. Thankfully it was toward the end!
Trail run starting from Proctor Staging Area up into the EMBUD lands toward Dinosaur Ridge.
