Run 146.
Today was supposed to be a running room group run, I showed up at the store at 8:30 and there were very few people there. I guess the Scotia bank Marathon, half marathon & 10 K drew all the regulars.
One of the guys I ran with last week was there and we decided to run a similar route through Griffith Woods park.
We tried to do the early cut off to get on the grave trails but the washout was impossible to cross so we stuck to the paved path. Then when we reached the end we tried to get on the gravel again but after running for a quarter mile thru mud we found that there was a river flowing down the trail. We backtracked through the mud to the paved trail and back to the store.
It was still a good run, just over 8 miles at about a 8:45 pace including all the stops. The morning was sunny and a little chilly which added a freshness to the run. I could feel my hamstring twinging for the last half of the run and then pulling a bit for the rest of the day.
