Mud!

The weather has been wonderful lately, the snow is melting! I am loving it and I even feel like I am able to add trail running to my week. I live on a dirt road and with it has been a mess. I went out for 3 miles on Saturday and Sunday and felt like I ran 10. I encountered ice, slush, mud, mud puddles, and a lot of ruts! My legs were so sore on Monday so I decided to rest them. I did a Cathe video off of Fitv, the pyramid upper body and core max. Ouch! I am still sore! I went to the gym with a friend yesterday and we ran 1.5 miles and elliptical for 30 minutes. Then we took our kids swimming which is always a workout in itself! JR had the day off so later when the kids were sleeping I couldn't resist going for another 3 miles. It was in the 40s here! I went to town to run so I didn't have to deal with the mud and I ended up doing 3 in 26:15, yay! I am hoping to do my long run with a friend today or tomorrow, just depends on if we can find someone to watch our kids. I am excited, I've never had anyone to run long runs with.
