Morning run b4 trip to Marengo caves with kids.  14 miles on Ppl Trail - 1:51:28.  Pushed it alittle bit in a couple spots.  Saw the Col. Run club people running the other way. 

Hiking through the Marengo Cave.  Their nature trail was also lame... Cold and I hit my head on a stalactite.  Stupid cave.
