I had so much fun today! We headed up the Blue Ridge Pkwy to Mt. Mitchell, the highest mountain east of the Mississippi.<br><br>
We're still getting used to running hills and running at altitude, and about 1/2 of the path we chose was VERY steep (up or down) and slippery from recent rains. So it wasn't all running. But we did get to run a good bit on a crushed rock path that had the most incredible views.<br><br>
I'm hooked and can't wait to go run on trail again. In the meantime, I'm going to work on strengthening my ankles. I did have a few ankle rolls out there.
