Final 30 of The Bear 100 - Joe and I were graced with the presence of El Vaquero Loco himself (Ty Draney). He regaled us with stories and adventures. We drove up to Franklin Basin ditched my car and headed up the road (2.5 miles) to Logan River Aid(ish) crossing. From then on, we followed the course all the way to the end(ish). To summarize, we ran hard and fast, then slow, and then even a bit slower. It was pretty rough at times, especially when I ran out of water, but Joe saved me since he brought 3liters + 24oz. Thanks Joe. Followed up the run with 64oz of coke, a La Beau special, and a raspberry shake. Followed that up by a few hours with the Family at the lake. That was followed up with a date (with my wife of course). A full day. T-5:30 (10:19) 6000' vert ascent 6800' descent
