 | Comments: |
My second trail run attempt. Martha was a much better fit for me than Starr King was. I didn't feel ruined afterwards.
Trail was well drained, no mud. Just damp enough to darken the soil a little bit.
Trail running does provide a potent endorphin high. It kicked in just as I stopped at the top to take in the views. I think related to letting out a deep breath, from knowing the hard part was over. As I let my eyes reach out across the expanse before me, the top of my head expanded upwards as well. It was nice; clean, clear and sativa like, without all the problems that come with real sativa. Beautiful sunset thru the trees on last half mile, and great Pandora reception. |
