 Two rounds of 18 holes at Freeman Park. Body seems to tolerate running on trails a little bit more than pavement!

 Great run with Mike Atteberry and Nate Rees-left from Teton campground, a pass Devils staircase, over to death the shelf for some out and back exploring, then down Alaska basin back to the car. Four hours and 50 minutes, quite a lot of vertical climb,. My hokas really   Bruised up my left ankle on the outside-really a bummer because otherwise those are great shoes

running most of the Bear 100 course (1st section) with Jeff Fullmer, Wnderley, and Drew Brazier. A pretty slow run overall (11 hours) but gorgeous country! Began at 2:30 am, chillier than I would have expected. Loved my new ATR shoes, great improvements over the last model. Chaffed on my butt a bit and a few small hot spots on feet but overall great feeling in the run
