Afternoon Run

Easy and mini strides

Set out to go after the Ken Burton 👑 and really hammered only to now realize I took the wrong trail down (el Prieto down instead of brown mountain) and now I feel a bit dumb, but it was an absolutely incredible run so I can’t be mad. I just tried to survive the uphills and then open up in the downhills, which seemed to be working pretty while but my quads are trashed rn. 

Some really impressive times have been run out on this trail and I didn’t come close to actually grabbing any of the shorter segment crowns (esp on the climbs), but I’m fairly confident I can grab this loop crown if I stick to the right route next time. 

The portion of the Gabrielino trail that goes up and around the dam on the way out is one of the most beautiful stretches of trail i’ve ever run. Also, i’ve shockingly never actually seen the dam until today, despite running this trail dozens of times in the other direction. Ken Burton ascent broke through the top of the fog layer, so I spent a portion of this one running on top of the clouds. Incredible!!
