Hope campground to hobble creek golf course via the mountain dirt road. Such a good run today with a great group of guys (Scott, Dan, Chris, Bill T, Bill H, Nick, David, and Toni). Thanks Chris for driving the 4 wheeler and hauling supplies, and to Scott and Bill for providing transportation back to the canyon after the run. I was a little worried about this last night but by the 5 mile mark I knew it was going to be a good one. I felt strong the whole time. Took the climbs steady, floated the first miles of downhill, and then got a good turnover push 10k (36:20) towards the end. Cooled down easy with Scott afterward. This is a really short version of a stellar morning. 7:27 avg. 2900 vert.
