Comments:
Got in a run during the primetime today. Lots of people out. Its a holiday but I still went in most of the day. Ran right before sunset. Started out really fast feeling pretty smooth. The path is all paved and painted now, so the section to Station Rd is going to be closed for a while. Passed a bunch of other runners before making it to the meadow. Did two loops. The flats were real chill but I took the hills hard, reminding myself of cross. Got an awesome view of the sunset. Instantly reminded me of big sky, sunset in the Badlands... I love grad school and work, but if I could drop it briefly and pile in the car and drive back out there, I would. Anyways felt pretty good on the loop, but tired out a lot when I got on the path. Took it home at a nice and easy pace. Legs feelin nice. Had to go 2 loops because it was getting dark out.

Essentials: Stretch, roll

Nice stretch and roll. ITs needed that. Apparently it is a Veterans Day tradition over at the Discovery Channel to show Moonshiners all day, so I watched that while I stretched. Those guys are always up to wild shenanigans... Anyways ankle was a little sore at points today, but held up nice on the soft surface. Shins were pretty tight when I started but went away quickly.
