This Sunday we were very excited to be taking our traveling sideshow out to Umstead Park for a trail run. I have always felt more at home on the dirt and roots and I was super excited about sharing that joy with Crystal, Amy, and Jamal.
Still, we could not take our first run at Umstead alone, so we decided to join in with some friends. We met up with Olivier, Ryan, Brian, Chris and Matt, each of which brought great enthusiam to the day. It made for a great time to be around all types of runners. Some running for fun, some training for ironmans, and some who have never run the trail before.
Sorry there are no picture or videos. The trail brought such a demand that I had no time for videos. Maybe it is time to purchase a head cam, then who knows what we will be capable of in documenting our runs!
I also think the bug might have bitten Amy while on our run today. She got back to the store with the urge to buy a trail shoe and now she is going to be the proud owner of the Brooks Cascadia. Watch out now!
I guess this will not be the last time the mega milers hit the trail!!!
Here is a pic that we took from the top Mt. Raleigh at Umstead Park...ok maybe not
Here is a picture of our view instead, still pretty exciting (is that a snake!!!)
