#crosscountytrail

I just had to get out of the neighborhood today and do some real #trailrunning. So I drove a few minutes to access the #crosscountytrail at #difficultrun where the trail is mostly rocky rooty #singletrack and after a a couple rainy days, a bit muddy, too. It felt good to have some natural surface underfoot for 6 easy miles, especially after two harder days. I should be ready for #longrun tomorrow to close out another solid week. #runblr #fitblr #springrunning #basebuilding #endurancetraining #trainingthroughlockdown (at Oakton, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_a0JOqnnE0/?igshid=c29b3pzagcd6

A #tgif #happyhour #6pack of miles this evening. I took it nice and easy on the #crosscountytrail and shook off the workday while also getting ready for a busy weekend of running and biking. We thought about going out for an evening meal afterwards, but in the end @lynnucla and I decided to stay in and watch the @nbafinalscoverage and enjoy a nice meal and #craftbeer. I love @anchorbrewing Blackberry Daze IPA. #runblr #fitblr #bikeblr #injuryrehab #comebacktrail #springrunning (at Mantua, Virginia)

Got some bike miles in today. As with my running I’m gradually building back bike fitness, so today’s plan to was to ride for an hour. I went out on the #crosscountytrail then switched to local roads. It was a good ride despite the heat and humidity. Back to running tomorrow. Hope everyone is enjoying the start of the long weekend! 🎇 🇺🇸 ☀️ #mastersrunner #masterstriathlete #masterstrackathlete #mastersxcrunner #mastersroadrunner #runva #tracktraining #xctraining #neverstopstriving #justkeepgoing #zensah #zensahambassador #teamzensah #withoutlimitz #roadcycling #fairfaxcountyva (at Fairfax County, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfhTC6AOsT0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Morning ride before the day’s heat set in. Summer is here, at least for a day or two, already pushing 90°F at 10am. The good thing about #cycling today is wind resistance, keeps you cool. That said I still saw plenty of runners out there getting their miles in. I have to log some #runmiles of my own tomorrow, and those will likely be early with high forecast to be 97°. Todays ride went over prt of the #crosscountytrail and rolling hills through nearby neighborhoods. Even with the unexpected heat it was a nice morning to be outside. #mastersrunner #masterstriathlete #masterstrackathlete #mastersxcrunner #mastersroadrunner #runva #tracktraining #xctraining #neverstopstriving #justkeepgoing #crosstraining #roadcycling #teamzensah #withoutlimitz (at Fairfax County, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cd09RW8usnW/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Nothing like a ride in the #goldenhour to clear your head after the workday. The #crosscountytrail and #longbranchtrail were both messy after last night’s rainstorm but the trail was still busy. It wasn’t a fast ride with all the slowdowns and muddy patches but I got my hour in, so all good. Fitness is continuing to come back once again. 📈 #mastersrunner #masterstriathlete #masterstrackathlete #mastersxcrunner #mastersroadrunner #runva #tracktraining #xctraining #neverstopstriving #justkeepgoing #withoutlimitz #trailcycling #crosstraining (at Fairfax County, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdJ_8eANufr/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
