BOO , Ya’ll!

So, I know that trail running at night can be a scary experience but we’re all adults and we don’t scare easy. Right? Personally, I am terrified of ticks and catching my trail shoe on a root on a steep downhill gives me nightmares but generally ghosts and monsters do not. I mean, they could be real but I’m not going to sweat it. So, I run! With a headlamp of course. That’s what keeps the goblins and witches away! No tricks on the trail, just treats. Avoid the neighborhood chaos and come to the not-so-haunted forests of Redland. You’ll still be home in time to rifle through your offsprings candy bag to confiscate the good stuff (Almond Joys, Good-n-Plenty and Double-Bubble to name a few)

OK scary announcements before the terrifying details for tonight:
