Patrick's Trail Loop

This morning I headed out solo on Patrick’s trail loop, covering 7.05 km in just over an hour, keeping it mostly steady and aerobic. My heart rate stayed comfortably low overall, drifting between Zones 2 and 3, with just a touch of climbing effort in Zone 4. The pace was unhurried, the cadence relaxed — the kind of run where the body moves and the mind wanders. As the trail rolled under my feet, I found myself thinking about old friends and the seasons of life we’ve shared. It was one of those “great feeling” runs — not fast, not flashy, just honest miles and quiet reflection in the woods., Avg Cadence:60
