Summer Solstice Trail Run - June 18


ARE Crew after the Summer Solstice
Although not on my goal list for the year, I completed my first 15K (that's 9.3 miles!) I went down to the race in a van with Albany Running Exchange members. My finish came with a cost. It was an evening trail run near New Paltz, NY and about 3 miles in, which was all up hill, I took my eye off the trail for the spectacular view and fell face first onto the rocks of the trail. Ouch! My nose was cut, my eye was swollen, I had a lump on my forehead and my knee was scraped bad. But I finished in 94:09! Great race. Beautiful. Would highly recommend it. Just don't take your eyes off the trail! Next race - the ValleyCats 5K Home Run
