Yesterday I went out with Nate for my first “trail run”. There’s a state forest about a mile from our home — how amazing! About a mile into the run, it started POURING. Huge drops. We enter the trail, and it was comical – the trail looked like it had been raining for weeks! Small…

Awesome method good thing Mesa is so disciplined.
