On tuesday night I ran the final Run Our Trails race of the year in Mendon Ponds Park. I finished the 3ish mile course in 33:29, good enough for 41st place in this race.
The course was very hilly, but my knee was feeling better than it was all summer. The uphill sections did more to wear me out, but I was passed more often on the downhills as I was still being a tad bit cautious.
I managed to run all the races in the Run Our Trails series this year, and ended up finishing third in my age group. While only the top four results are used for these rankings, I wonder if I could have done even better had I not been injured for a few of the races this summer.
My next race is once again on trails as I will be running the Give Cancer the Bird 9k in Honeoye on October 18th.
