Back On The Trail Again

Today I gave myself the green light to get back on the Santa Fe Trail again here in Monument, Colorado after taking 8 days off from running to give my body a little break.  On December 3, 2016 I successfully completed my 35-Day 13.1 Mile Training Run Challenge of running 35 consecutive Half-Marathon Distance training runs on the Santa Fe Trail.  After sucking in the Santa Fe Trail Dust for 35 days straight my sinuses finally cleared up over the weekend so I decided to stretch my legs this morning and go on a short 8 Mile Training Run.  It felt great to fire up my Santa Fe Trail running engine again and take a nice leisurely run from Monument, Colorado to Palmer lake, Colorado.  It was a beautiful morning for a run with trail temperatures hovering somewhere in the mid 40's with a nice sunny blue sky welcoming me back to the Santa Fe Trail.  The weather forecast looks very promising for the end of this week with mild 50 degree temperatures returning to the Monument Area which means that I will soon be able to bust out some longer distance training runs!

Have A Nice Trail Run™
