Feeling the race in my legs a bit this morning, woke up with really sore calves and hamstrings.  The last time I was here in Anaheim I found a great bike commute trail that seems to go on forever, it starts off of Katella Ave. near the Honda Stadium were the Ducks play and goes for ever in both directions.  Last time I did it I drove to the trail, today I woke up at 4:30 am and decided to run there instead.  It was a bit further than I had thought about 3 miles from the hotel to the trail and then I ran the trail 3 miles out and back and then back to the hotel for a total of 12.  Pretty dark once I got to the trail, the only thing lighting the way was the really cool full orange moon,  it was pretty neat.  There were little bunny rabbits that kept running out in front of me scaring me to death.  The only thing that scares be worse than fuzzy little bunny rabbits is thinking about what ever must be there to eat the bunny rabbits.  Luckily I didn't run into any of them.

I ran a bit faster than I had planned, (6:45) felt pretty good once I got the legs moving.  Still a little bit depleted from the race but I'm sure after a recovery run tomorrow I'll be fine. I forgot my HR monitor and didn't want to come back up to my room to get it.

You're right Allie, Skunks are much scarier than fuzzy rabbits.
