Hagg Lake training run for the 25k race in 2 weeks.  The trail around Hagg lake is beautiful.  It was very muddy in spots, but worth getting dirty.  This was my first run over 8 miles since October, and I hurt this morning.  Looking forward to the race.

Wildwood Trail.  10 miles out and back. 4200 ft elevation gains.

Great condition today.  A little muddy, but not too shabby for a Winter run in the Northwest.

Probably the toughest 15 miles of my life.  After 2 weeks of rain and snow, the course was a complete mud bog.  The best analogy I heard: "it was like running a 25K trail run on roller skates with 10lb ankle weights on."  The up hills were gnarley. You take 2 steps and then slide down 3.  Even the flats were slick and I met the ground on more than one occassion.  Great race though. The organization and volunteers were great.  Highly recommend it.

Cold run today.  Ran to vineyard and back with Lisa. 1200 ft elevation gains/loss.  Felt great afterwards considering the wind.
