Just for fun, not mine, I just found it as I'm frustrated by still being unable to get out there after illness.

    I love downhill running. Especially on a REALLY steep slope it is a huge adrenaline rush. That looked fun, nothing too crazy. It's a lot of focus to make every footstep count if you are on a technical trail.

    The favourite part of my run today was discovering I was at the top of a crazy steep hill so I sprinted down it, arms wide open shouting 'Jack, I'm flying!!!!!" Put a smile on my face for the remainder of the run!

    My knees ache just looking at that. I hate the downhills. I do them slowly and controlled. I can't afford to miss work from an injury and I have ZERO center of gravity. I would have ended up doing that hill head-first.
