Today before work I decided to get a good scout-out of my local walk-in-hunting grounds. Every year before the hunting season begins I do a walk around to make sure I am sure of the boundaries and also aware of any new building, houses, farm implements. Safe hunting requires properly knowledge and education!! I decided to just run the route around the property and kill two birds with one stone.
Walk-in hunting is very common in our area. They are not always the most productive spots because they tend to be hunted pretty aggressively, but you never really know.
I had a fabulous run! About 1/2 way into my 3rd mile I almost had to stop and just cry for minute. I have had nothing but horrible runs this month and they have been so draining. Finally having a run where I felt strong, hit my groove and absolutely loved every minute of it was overwhelmingly awesome. It was a much needed attitude booster and just in time for my long run this weekend- a 9 miler, which will be my longest run to date and I'm going to have to squeeze into a really long weekend!

Tree line in a cornfield. If you are not a hunter- this is a good thing. :)
My earbuds. And me.
The sun came out for the last mile of my run! Hello shadow girl!!
Post-run fuel- whole wheat crepes, cottage cheese and a banana. Absolutely delicious and filling!
What a fantastic run, I hope you keep the momentum going over the weekend!
ReplyDeleteI liked the hunting tour! We don't have access to corn fields..it doesn't grow well here. And all the flat land is pretty much locked up as private property& our hunting is in the trees or in the timber areas that have been cleared- all mountains. I have never hunted, but my husband does. I hope you get a big one!
ReplyDeleteAlso glad to read you had such a great run :) - small blessings. Hope your 9 miler went well.
What a beautiful run! And those crepes looks amazing!! How did you make them?
