Long Run - Sufferfest.  really good weather in the morning.  Made the mistake of waiting around until 8:30 to start the run.  Suffered through about 3 hours in warmer weather. 

Out and back on Ppl trail along 46, omstly in grass.  16.7mi.  Back to house and filled up hydration pack for next leg.  Thought for sure that 2 liters would get me throught the rest.  It was close.  Grand View out and back to add on about 20 more miles.  Back to house and changed shoes and refilled a handheld to finish the remaining 4 miles.  40 miles total - 6:12:54 moving time

Drove out to Grand View for a try at trail loop.  No go - about 0.8 in to the loop, realize that it is unrunnable with down trees, losing the path, and endless spider webs crossing the path. 

Hop down on to the road.  Much more enjoyable.  Ogling all the awesome houses, and watching the boats and waterskis , and seeing other folks out walk, jog, bike around the loop.  about 10miles - about 8:20 pace
