alright Scccaaarrryyy. Run with headlight. 3.01 mi 00:28 09:11 pace

Hats off to you brave souls who run trails in the dark. I was busy parenting so I didn't get to run until dark. I was not going to let this warm day get away. Bought a headlight at Gander Mt. I wend out on my fav trail. To be honest I was scared the farther I got into the pitch black trail. Ok I know what your thinking...I am a wimp!

    It's the loss of depth perception that is disorienting. You're the antithesis of a wimp for running in the dark at all.

    Don, we are all scared when we go out in the dark! It's freakish and monsters are lurking everywhere!

    I run predawn in the dark all the time, but it's on a nice paved trail. I can't imagine running on an actual trail--that would be scary! Glad you managed to make the most of the nice weather, regardless!

    hahaha I know the feeling! I don't run trails in the dark on purpose. I do however run dirt roads sometimes and there are times when I scare myself half to death! nice job!
