Quick run around NE. Second run with Tausha. We ran through a nice park a couple times which was softer on my feet.

My first official run towards the Portland Marathon. My marathon partner ran this with me. I am a little further in the schedule than her but I don't doubt she will catch up quick!

Also, this route was hilly...up NE 33rd which is one giant hill.

My first long run. From my house to Mysterious Kelly Butte Natural Area.

I tried the GU Gel for the first time and it processed without issues.

Lots of uphill especially on the trail up to the Butte
