Eureka 5K Trail Run

Saturday's race sucked.  It was very hot and humid, and I forgot how hard a trail run is to do.  I never really felt like I had my breath.  I was tired from the very first steps.  The course was full of twists and turns, wet grass, steep hills, and tree roots.  It was fun though.  I really felt it in my knees.  After .77 miles on the Garmin, I said to myself, "thank God this is only 3 miles."  I need to do a lot of work before the 8 mile trail run in October.

My time was pretty bad 30:51.  You really cannot compare a road race time to a trail run time, but it still seems pretty horrible.
