We ran loop 2 today. When we got there both gates were locked on the way to Peavine Falls. Richard unlocked them with a magic touch. This put us 10 minutes late starting though. Walked uphill all the way to the Peavine Falls parking lot. It was interesting to actually be able to look out over the valley on the side of the road. Most of the time I am busy watching the road. When we started down the CCC road the wind was cutting us in two. It was unbelievably cold. I didn't have anything for my ears and they were hurting.
I started down the BUMP trail and tripped before Blood Rock. After Blood Rock I heard something behind me and looked over my shoulder as I was jogging. I must have stepped odd because a pain shot through the back of my left knee and I hopped on my right leg for the next couple of steps. It eased off and I was able to keep jogging and stay up with Richard. I almost fell flat on my face as I tripped over a root down toward the bottom of the trail. Behind my left knee was hurting like the dickens. Fortunately we made it back in 1 hour and 8 minutes. I was glad that was over with.
