day of rest

Took today off after spending most of the time yesterday trekking along Orange, Yellow & Blue Trails (about 14 miles) & measuring with a wheel while enjoying the scenery -- you can always notice more around you when you're not having to concentrate on your footing while running. Wasn't planning to go so far but the weather was just great. It became taxing on the legs though with all the hills & having just done a tempo run the day before. Met Cynthia on the Orange Trail & discussed a course change for the race. Also took some pictures of some downed trees to be reported to Forest Management. Planning to do some trail marking for the race the next few days (walking only) --legs are sore so won't be doing too much running before the race Saturday.
