Sun 1/4 - PM 65 minutes easy

Area 51. Overnight a disgusting sloppy mess of snow followed by rain passed through leaving slush everywhere, which had me wondering if the trails would be runnable, skiable, or neither. While I was leaning towards staying on the roads I chose instead to try the woods, although it's closer to the truth to say the compulsion to hit the trails was too strong to resist. As it turned out, trails are definitely not skiable thanks to the rain melting into the snow, more or less runnable at least until the slush freezes solid which is inevitable. Took it quite easy (which I was doing anyway) and kept stride short with knees low to minimize slipping. Calves tight afterward, likely from both yesterday's efforts and running in the slush today.
