So we were gonna do this run saturday morning. But since it was suppose to rain hard all saturday morning, we decided to do another night run.
I worked a 10 hr shift at work and then got the news we were running at night. I wasnt thrilled to say the least....since the memories of the last midnight run were still fresh
Haleys hubby drove us up the course. It was windy and RAINY...and i was really trying to stay postivie. I just kept thinking....running in the rain in daylight vs darkness....
So at the top, we quickly realized that I was the only one who brought a headlamp. But it seemed to do the trick. The first 10 miles about were so windy and the rain kept whipping my face...I was really trying to go to my happy place in my head. Then my headlamp battery died!!!!
AHHHH. Pitch black in the wind and rain....am i CRAZY.....check....yes i am!!!
Haley quickly downloaded the flashlight app on her phone. we were able to see again....so nice. Around mile 13 the wind had died down and the rain had stopped....YEAH!!!!!
At this point I wasnt dreading the run. We were about half way. I felt great and It was nice that the stars were all aligining....hahaha get it STARS!
Anyway, we ran down through snow canyon park, then back to haleys house in IVINs.
When we got into IVINs. Only 2 miles left!!! at 130am we had a strange truck following us. He turned around and was driving slowly. We all spooked and hid in the bushes!!!
After it was done. I was glad it was done. get to sleep in tomorrow!!! But I swear this is the last midnight run for me!!!! lol
avg pace 9:03
