Ogden's Hidden Trails...

Okay, they may not be hidden, but they were hidden from ME. I went running with SueAnn this morning (which, btw, went better than I thought... she's a swell individual) and she took me a different way up the Ogden trails, through the golf course, and over to another trail by St. Joseph's high school on Lark Street. Before I knew it we'd been running for almost an hour. Insane. I'm excited to run it with you guys! She's going to show me some other cool trails, too. All I know about Ogden's trails are what you two have showed me. I'm psyched to learn more! And a definite bonus about running with someone new... you don't want to be the pansie... so I ran HILLS, didn't walk... and still lived to tell about it. :) Maybe it's a good thing, Mand, I might actually be able to keep up with you on the hills after this summer!

I miss running with you guys, but if I have to run with someone different... at least I'm going to stack up a bunch of cool new runs for us!!! Yessssss.

YEah! Sounds like a good time..perhaps saturday we can run trails... I miss them, yes, yes I do- isn't it funny how just because there is someone new you have to prove yourself- when there is someone knew...

i forgot you were coming saturday! that's right!!! maybe we do need to mix it up a bit. hmmmmmmmm. i am supposed to run 8, manda wants to come but i don't know if she's up to 8 yet... so i was just going to meet her at her house (since her place is 2 miles away...) hmmm... lets think of other options. :) we both need to go early. does that work for you?

here's my excellent idea.

Erin, you drive to Amanda's that morning, leave your car and hop in Manda's. Manda you come to my place. We'll then run the trails... Amanda you'll split with us coming down Oakridge and drive home, Erin and I will run to your place. Sound like a plan? Then Erin and I get our 8ish miles in and you can stick around 6.

Thoughts?

I love that you always have a new idea. Yes I do. I'm all about the run on Saturday! I'm so excited to run again I can't even stand it. Funny how you get to missing it....or maybe I just miss you guys....

Lori said...

awww friend, we miss you too!!!

so... yes. i have yet another idea to throw out (shocking, absolutely shocking)

this morning Sue Ann showed me a trail that picks up just east of St. Joseph's and runs to the pipe. She said from her house on Oakridge to the pipe and back is about 7 miles. She said the trail is flat, beautiful and cause it's by the canyon? BREEZY. Sigh. So... that's my other idea. :) Manda could met us at the trailhead at the top of Baker to chop off some mileage. It sounds enticing to do a FLAT, NEW trail run, eh? eh??
