Default Airing Down with Tire Plug

Hey Everyone,

Well, today was a sad day. My notification light popped up that i have low tire pressure. After inspecting, i found a huge nail in my right rear tire... Needless to say, i was pretty annoyed. I know there are easy fixes for nail punctures like a plug, but that brings me to my main question:

Is it ok to air down for a trail with a tire plug in?

Im headed to a trail ride at Rausch Creek on the 15th, and i don't want to get on the trail and have tire issues.

Thanks!
-Sam

^ What Mark said. I have a plug in my tire and air down all the time without a problem.
