Sunday Run at the Brad

Met up with Xar, Mindy, Val and Rick this morning at Bradbury to join them on the first 10 miles of Xar and Val's UXBA run. It was a bright and sunny morning with blue sky above and relatively cool temps. We set off with Val and Piper in the lead to run the Scuffle course. It was fun to catch up with everyone as we ran along. We played leapfrog with a group of bikers, and heard Jamie calling out to us from the BBU course as we ran down the Snowmobile trail, but otherwise the trails were relatively quiet. After a brief stop back at the parking lot, we headed out onto the Breaker course. I felt pretty strong on the hills but my legs were definitely feeling a bit tired by the time we made the final push to the summit before descending on the Switchback trail. I was happy to call it a day with 10.2 miles, and to meet up with Sam and Ryan for a donut as a post-run snack :-)

Xar went on to run not only the UXBA but a few extra miles to get in over 34 miles for the day - impressive!!! Fun to run with everyone on a beautiful Sunday morning! Thanks for letting me tag along, guys!
