East Rock

The knee seems to be coming around after a second prolotherpy session with Dr. Boyer. As a result, I've been doing some running on the East Rock trails (with some mixed in hiking on the ascents). Last night, I biked the two miles to the trailhead at the very end of Orange Street, where it intersects with English/Farnam Drive, and ran the trail along Farnam Drive to where it begins to climb to the top of East Rock. I zig-zagged my way up to the top, stretched out, and floated back down.

It's nice to finally feel somewhat normal again on the trails. The fitness definitely is not there yet, but the knee is feeling good. There are quite a few more East Rock trails that I'd like to explore, so if the knee cooperates like it has been, then that's probably where you'll find me.

On another note, the Bridger and Gallatin Mountains are calling our names. T-6 days!
