Laurel Highlands Training Run

DSC01098

This morning I drove from Pittsburgh to Ohiopyle to meet Beth Miller for a run on the Laurel Highlands Hiking Trail.  Before going to bed last night I glanced at the radar and saw that the entire Midwest was filled with rain and storms.  I really wasn’t anticipating any good weather during our run but was pleasantly surprised when the rain stopped at the beginning of our run and then the skies turned sunny and blue later on.  During the middle of the day temperatures were in the mid to upper 60s, the sun felt warm, and the strong breeze was nice and cool.  Once again the trail gods were looking out for us!  We ended up getting in 26 miles after running to mile 8 and back, to the overlook and back, and then up to Cucumber Falls and back.  All around it was a great day!
