CA's hunt fro our house

July 2, 2019 (Night)

Exercise Type: Run

Weather: mid 60s? Breezy, almost cool!

Comments:
Small but nice hunt from our house:

I was the only true OG
Then it was CA, CB (since 2014?), Justin, Evan, and Ethan (the weirdo younger guy from WI)

We piled into the van and drove up to Blanton TH, then ran the backside trail/road east bound to Willamette, and back via the Ridgeline trail, proper.

Ankles SUPER-stiff to begin with, on the grindy road uphill. I think I've been both over-striding and under-foot-pushing. The solution - besides "Salazar Stride" is "flick & pull" -- the flick primes the foot to push off better.

The ankles and legs came around good enough, as CA grinded a bit - mostly due to Ethan being "up in her grill".

Good WSER chats all night, as Evan had his first taste, pacing this dude "Ronny", who lives in Auburn.

Ran back to the van, and I was the only one who drove it back. Solid 4.5 miler.

Social: fun outdoor firepit hangout 'til nearly 10! Very enjoyable, actually.
