We had our first fresh #mushrooms of the year for lunch yesterday. Couldn't find many of them, just the four because they prefer growing out of melting snow that we didn't have this early spring, but they are substantial and were healthy so we added a few young #asparagus spears and parsley greens from the garden to the meal and, together with a dandelion greens salad picked at the #forest margins, it was well worth the slightly frustrating weekend walk in the #woods.
Wow, my legs are *destroyed*. Yesterday was my first long run of the season. Was expecting to do 5ish miles. Ended up doing seven miles over brutal technical single track.
That first mile was *no* joke!
Looking forward to a recovery hike later today.
