Blidworth Woods

My first trail run at Blidworth Woods was fun... and hard... even if it was just 3.3 miles, it took my legs and minced it up into little pieces. Yes, my knee was uncomfortable and kept feeling like it had stitches that was tearing loose, but it wasn't sore. The ground in the woods varied from being sandy and loose to muddy to covered with roots to sturdy, but you never knew what was around the next corner (as it goes when you run somewhere for the first time) and it was absolutely amazing to run between the trees.

Peg-leg of course had to join me to find out whether this will become regular training grounds ... and we're happy to announce that it will!

I'm going to need to invest in more shoes though!

Looks like you survived! The trails are the greatest; once the rhythm sinks in, you'll be a regular.
