Big day for the old man out on Antelope island. Went with Brother Oreo, Shane the Mountain Goat and T-Bone. Ran the 16 mile loop with add on out to Elephant Head or Turtle Rock or whatever it was. Beautiful moonscape scene out there. Overall felt good until last 3-4 miles. Felt about 300 pounds about then. Saw Jun and Kelli cruising by on the trail...they appear to be studly runners just like you would guess. Started cursing profusely about mile 15 or so. Potty mouth gives me extra running motivation. The great thing is that I know my body isn't really built for these long miles but I feel cool doing it anyway. Oreo is back...kicking my trash all over the place. Fun day.
