6.5 mile GS loop. It is suprisingly warm in the morning. At 6:30 it's dark and you'd expect it to be cold. Today it was 59 degrees before I went out. Just shorts and a T' shirt. I'm loving it. The weather man says it will cool off later this week. Bummer!

10.3 mile trail run tonight. I went out exploring some new trails tonight so when I started I didn't know if it would be 6 or 15 miles... The map calls this trail the Black Knolls trail. It shows it comming off the turkey farm road south east until it hit the powerline trail. Well I went out and ran up the powerline trail to the watertank and then up the turkey farm road a little more than a mile and a half past the watertank to where the trail head takes off. I followed the trail the best I could but it kind of vanishes into the rock and dirt. So I just made up the rest of the trail down to the powerline trail and back home.

I'll have to run it again and find where it really comes down. The way I came off the hill requiered some free climbing off the lava flow. Beautiful fall evening for a run.

Hey, do you know what major races you will be doing next year?

From Superfly on Wed, Oct 31, 2007 at 09:01:07

I'm still trying to put together my 2008 race plan.

As far as marathons go. At this point I think Ogden in May, Des News in July and STGM in October. I'd still like to catch one in January or Feb but I havent found one that works for me.

Other half and things I'm looking at are:

Moab half

Hurricane half

Striders half

Striders 30K

TOU half or Hobble half

Alta Peruvian 8k

And of course hopefully a couple fun relay's with the boy's from the blog.
