It wasn't much of a day for activities as my legs, back and butties were still feeling the effects of many hours of driving yesterday.
Instead of a run I went on a nice hike around Thumb Butte with Lulu.
The first 3/4 mile was a really tough climb along a path that switchbacked along the base of the butte as we gained altitude above the forest below. Thankfully this section is paved but it still is a slooooow grind up to the crest of the trail but once at the top you have great views of Prescott far below in the distance the beautiful Prescott National Forest all around.
From there we descended gradually along several winding trails that brought us around the butte to end up back at the trailhead.
It was a nice day for the hike but I'll be happy when my diet gets back to normal and I'm running well again as my trail ultra is just 3 weeks away.
