You Can Rest When You Die

Yesterday Frank and I did our first run since doing the run at Malibu last weekend. It was a short run and we both felt good. We have another race on May 8 – a 20K in Oakland. I decided I needed more miles today so I ran a trail that I have not run in years that we call the Coffer Dam road. I started from my house that is on the Olmstead Loop trail. I started out feeling pretty good and took a trail that we call Secret trail. It was very pretty out today with lots of wildflowers. I found the trail heading down to the river. It was about two miles of rocky trail down to the American River. I was not sure the trail would be passable since the last time I ran it about 12 years ago it was washed out and impassable. Lucky for me I was able to make it to the bottom -- now for the fun part of running up the Coffer Dam road. It was still as steep as ever but I was able to make it to the top without stopping. The rest of the way back home is where last weekend caught up to me -- it was windy and cold and just plain hard the last few miles. My run today was 10.70 miles, but as they say You Can Rest When You Die !!
