April 16

I'm back again already.  Today I didn't have to work, so I slept in all the way to 7:30!  Trish made me some delicious scones, and I was generally a sloth around the flat most of the morning.  I went down to REI in Cary to acquire some Clif bars (Bar of the week only 79 cents!)  Then got back and went out on a run to find the elusive trailhead of the Loblolly Trail near the RBC Center.  After a few misses, I eventually found the trail, it's a pretty nice little path with a few small crossings and no traffic.  I wound around on that and through the Schenk Forest and got back a little shy of two hours, which was about 30 min longer than I had planned on. Oh well.  I felt good, I just took the little 10 oz. hand bottle, but I refilled it at the forest.  I'm starting to get used to that one, the full size one is still kind of cumbersome.  Got back with an ice bath and nearly half a jar of PB and several bananas.  Now I'm ready to head off to school to coach the sprinters.  Tonight I plan to work on my recipe for energy bars.  My last ones were ok, but they were too crumbly.
