A weekend of running in Cascade, MI

Run Dates: February 6-7, 2010
Run Times: Daytime.

In this, the third post for today (playing catch up) I give you the two runs I took while in Cascade, MI this past weekend. Surely, these would be more interesting to third parties if I had taken pictures. Consider my lesson learned. In the meantime, just sit in awe at how many miles I ran. I am so awesome. ME ME ME ME ME.

I did notice that a mere 2 out of 15 people smiled or acknowledged my existence as I passed them on the trail. It was kind of unusual. One of the guys who did talk to me was pretty nice though. He was walking his dog and pointed out to me that it was cold and I was brave. I know I am, sir.

Actually, the 12 mile run had some killer hills. Of course, Hilary claimed to have not known this when she devised the route, but I am skeptical. Just kidding. It is interesting that there were so many steep hills, I apparently climbed over 1,000 feet cumulatively over the run.
