BPA Trail. 8:00 a.m. Met up with Lisa in Federal Way. It has been a long time since we had ran at the BPA trail so Lisa suggested it. Weather was good due to no rain. We were lucky because most of the weekend it did rain. It was just cloudy but weather was fine. We ran regular route, almost to the aquatics center but not quite and turned around. Lisa wanted to just run about 3 miles. Then she took of and I did one more route all the way to aquatics center and turned around. This 2nd time was a lot harder and those hills were tough but I kept running. I counted about 6 hills maybe. 1 hill was the largests more near end of route before turn around spot. I felt fairly good, since I had gotten fairly more sleep last night. The only area was tight was the muscle right above my hamstrings, just below my butt on the L side. Just some slight pain there, odd. I did the whole run without music. I just enjoyed Gods nature.
