On wednesday night I ran in the Dirt Cheap Trail Race at Webster Park. I finished the course in 49:17 which was quick enough to finish in the top third of runners. I last ran this race in 2019 so the course may have changed some since then, but this was my fastest finish in this race.
Webster Park is usually one of my favorite places to run, but the mud made things very challenging in this race. I only fell once, but I was often sliding and having to slow down to maintain balance. There were a few sections where I could run well, but there was also one point about a mile from the finish where I had to walk for almost a quarter mile as the only way to get through the mud.
It looks like my next race will also be on trails as I run the Run Our Trails race at Mendon Ponds at the end of the month.
