I headed up Mount Douglas Park for a tough run-hike to the summit of Little Mount Doug, taking on the steepest climbs right from the start. The trails were rugged and slow going, with plenty of climbing, off-leash dogs, rocky sections, and a careful descent after my recent fall earlier in the week. I looped past the saddle, caves, and Todd Trail before making the final push to the summit on the safer back route. Along the way I stopped for photos, monitored my heart rate and calorie burn, and enjoyed the incredible views despite feeling a bit sleep-deprived. By the time I reached the top, the outing felt less about speed and more about endurance, caution, and simply enjoying the mountain.
