Meadows trail Loop

This morning I tackled the Meadows trail loop, a short but demanding five-kilometer route packed with steep climbs, rugged rocks, and tangled roots. The constant elevation gain kept the effort honest, pushing me into Zone 4 on some of the tougher sections while most of the run stayed comfortably aerobic. I averaged about a 10-minute kilometer pace and managed to keep moving steadily despite the technical terrain underfoot. The workout left me feeling strong, energized, and satisfied after nearly fifty minutes of grinding through the trails. Sometimes the smaller loops end up delivering the biggest workouts, and today was definitely one of those days.
