Long Trail Run -

Joined Mike for his first 20 miler on trails. He's training for Logan Peak and couldn't fit in a long run this weekend so I joined him. I picked a pretty hard 20 miler for his first. Poor guy. At least it was an awesome trail. Route was Ephraims Grave Loop (Willow-Cutoff-Steel) then back to the car for a water refill and then back up Ricks to nearly the top then back down Ricks to the car. We got done just in time to not need any lights. Good thing 'cause we didn't have any. Mike was sure dragging by the end, but he made it. He didn't even slow down that much, in-spite of his whining. Not many people whine as much as me. He makes the list...

2 whiners? Glad I wasn't at that run.

So let me get this straight- Mike's never done a 20 miler anywhere before this run, and he's doing Logan Peak?

You got it. Sounds like something I would do. In fact, I encouraged it. I am trying not to scare him. He's in for a nice surprise. Gonna be fun....

Don't scare him, but don't let him be mentally unprepared, either...

I tell first timers to start off ridiculously slow, then slow down even more. Maybe you can tell it will be twice as hard as your run on Wed.

Speaking of Logan peak, are you taking back your crown this year?
