Something new today. I met Paul and Leland Barker and we ran sections of the Bear 100 course marking it with flagging. We started near Fish Haven and did an out and back on a section of trail. It started at 8300 feet and climbed to 9000 feet before descending back to 8500 feet on the other side. At 4 miles, we turned around and went back with the section of the course now marked. Back over the hill. Then while Leland drove, Paul and I ran another 8.5 miles down the Old Logan road past beaver creek and out to the highway. We picked up the pace for the last 4 miles and the legs were feeling good. I am looking forward to one more hard week then a nice taper. I am planning on about 60 miles next week with two good workouts (one tempo and one CV fartlek) with a med run sat.
