Training Update - On The Road Again

Due to travel I was not able to get out of, I've spent the last twelve days in the Wasington DC area. While this has hindered my training some what it hasn't stopped it.  Believe it or not there are extensive "trail" networks through out the National Capital Region (NCR) which can be taken advantage of.  While many of these are paved, there are sections that offer trail running type conditions.

Two of the most significant trail systems include the Cross County Trail (CCT) and the Wasington and Old Dominion (W&OD) trail.  These offer a refreshing option to the standard urban jungle runs.

I was able to cover a large portion (35 out of about 40+ miles) of the CCT about twice and spoty portions of the W&OD.  Since these trails are relatively flat, there were some good speed workouts.  Looking forward to getting back to New Mexico!
