With 3-5 inches of rain overnight, Rich made the call early for a little fun mud run on our local trails this morning. I was game. We planned a short 5 mile route with plenty of opportunities for reek crossings that had turned into "ranging rivers" and just plain ol' muddy trails. We kept the pace easy, allowing us enough energy for an engaging conversation. Before I knew it, we arrived back at his house. The weather was perfect with cooler temps and a light drizzle accompanying us along the way. I plan on one or 32 more very short runs just to keep the legs lose before Saturday's big day.
