Runnin' in Tulsa...

One of the cool things about travelling for work is that you get to see a lot of cool places. For me, the best way to see what a different city is all about is to run there...really cool change of pace. This week I was in Tulsa; did an hour and twenty minute trail run. It was hot, humid, rocky, undulating and totally awesome. I LOVE trail running. It reminded me a ton of upstate New York, when I was a 10 year old kid, trailblazing in those dense woods where I grew up...

I ended up rolling my ankle, on what was the flattest part of the trail, when I awkwardly stumbled over a rock half the size of a golf ball...Foot is now swollen, elevated and on ice...chillin', enjoying a birthday beer and looking forward to a little ride tomorrow morning with K on her new tri bike...8 days til IMMOO! Go K.
