Yesterday's 30K run at Jalapeño Hundred turned out pretty well.
My mind was right, I had my podcasts/music and the weather was great.
Loved the course, despite the sand (think: running in small dunes). I got a coupla blisters, but I was pretty happy to finish faster than usual.
Oh, and I prefer sand to rocks ANY day.

Affirmation

People often ask me why I love trail running. It's all about the stories. You meet a different kind of person on the trails: connects with nature, doesn't mind slowing down if someone is in need, says, "Good job, runner." 
Trail runners are competitive, for sure. But it's also egalitarian. Seldom will you find the elites separated from the regular folk. Everyone gets lost at some point. Everyone falls. These are our badges of passage. This is my take on trail culture.
