Lake Mountain with Jun, MattVH, Mr. K and Faceless Ghost-
Up at 4:30 am to meet the boys at the AF park n ride for another really fun run up to Lake Mountain. I was very worried about my ankle because of the large wound that is still there. It was really hurting yesterday, so I put on extra bandages and tape and just planned on ignoring any pain.
It was cool at the start, but not cold, although VH was shivering. There was a bit of mud on the road, but nothing that slowed us down at all. We didn't push too hard and just chatted the whole way up. About 3/4 of the way up a shirtless dude (MattVH) comes running out of nowhere, I think he just wanted to show off his rippling pecs. It was warm, but not that warm. Up to the summit in 1:06 with the most amazing sunrise. Pure awesome.
The run down was pretty sore on my ankle on the steep procky sections, but once we got past them it didn't really bother me at all and I was able to get into a pretty decent pace. I put on my ipod and had a really fun cruise down singing with MattVH and enjoying the sweet views. It was a really fun day with good friends and the perfect way to start my day. |
