I ran a course on Surebridge after school. It was getting dark when I went out and by the time I got back it was basically too dark to read the map. I had a nice easy run. I couldn't read the map on the run since I had to look closely to make out the detail in the fading light. Because I couldn't read the map on the run very well it was a good memorization exercise. I felt good physically, but on the hills I did feel a little tired. Overall it was a nice easy training. Just getting out into the woods and on a map felt great.

After running on Surebridge I did some hill sprints. It was on extremely rocky terrain so it was a great mental focus exercise. Since it was pretty dark it was hard to see the rocks well so I really had to focus just to keep from tripping. My legs felt really tired and I had to strain just to get to the top of the hill.
