Ran 5 miles on Dirt Mulholland

The wildflowers were breathtaking! Too bad I didn't have my camera.

Ran 3 miles in the starlight last week. It was late when I got home but I had to run. No moon. I ran up Mulholland. I took a side road in the darkness thinking it would take me back to the suburbs but it was a dead end. It was interesting running through the thick trees where even the starlight was blotted out. Could not see a thing. More than once I heard rustling in the bushes. More than once I looked over my shoulder. Fun!

How do you run on an uneven dirt road in the dark without a light? You have to sense the road and just know where to step.
