Cycling fam!
I'm sore from yoga, especially the muscles between my shoulder blades.

Thursday 20

Haw Ridge. 8 mile loop, quite a bit slower than the last time I ran this loop. I was a little overzealous with this run, probably should have been a 6 miler instead of an 8 miler.

Friday 21

I wasn't as leg tired today as I thought, but still took a rest day. Tomorrow is Mount LeConte.

Saturday 22

We were up and out early for our hiking trip up to the LeConte Lodge. It was cold and icy on top and the fog made visibility almost zero. My favorites part was a evergreen section on top that smelled like christmas. Kristen said it reminded her of Narnia. The ascent was strenuous but we didn't rush it. The descent was harding on me. I plan to do this again with a focus on seeing how much I could run and how fast I can get to the lodge. Before this attempt however, I should check to see if that is frowned upon.
