TOPFIT Daily Activities --- Jacksonville Trail Run
I got my day off to an early start with a couple of brisk 1/2 mile walks with a client this morning and after finishing with client sessions for the day I went to the J-Ville Trails for a 2 hour run (with a few breaks for pics).
These buttercups are so shiny, it's hard to get a good pic of them.
I went to the right, but I guess I didn't try hard enough :(
