Nice out and back desert run

Who doesn’t love the dessert in winter!?

First race for me since pandemic so I think I was mostly happy to be out running at all and loved the nice crisp temps of the desert winter morning. Packet pick up was smoothly run the morning of- with nice long sleeve tech shirts and a design I’ll actually wear. Course was out and back on shoulder of road with gradual incline/decline that was hardly noticeable. Beautiful desert landscape, but hardly anyone out there cheering (on account of small race and some Covid measures still in place). Medals were okay- awards were mailed out afterwords. Not over the top, but simple and easy. Would run again for fun if I were already in the area.
