Muddy Trails!

This morning, I ran a 5K at a local nature preserve. This week has been very rainy so the trails were extremely muddy and swampy :( However, despite the mud, swamp, twists and turns, and steep hills I realized that I enjoy trail running. It was absolutely gorgeous - the smell of spring, blossoms blooming on the trees, a wooden bridge, a bird lookout, and the sun shining through the trees. I loved every minute of the race! Next time though, I will have to wear an older pair of shoes and a change of clothes just in case. I even placed 2nd in my age group for 25-29 year olds - uber elated :)

Well, off to finish packing to visit our families for Easter!

I hope you enjoy your Easter weekend with your family and friends!
