AM- 9. Nice morning out. First run in my Hokas, and I'll admit that I really liked them. Looking forward to trying them on real trails- I was on mainly road with just a bit of dirt this morning. PM- 14 splendid miles on the sometimes twisty, sometimes hilly, sometimes rooty, otherwise flat, smooth, and gorgeous singletrack of Southside Park. Beautiful day for a run. 100% singletrack. Saw about 6 mtn bikers in the first 20 min, then didn't see a soul the rest of the time- very peaceful. Great place to run- there's a wonderful, almost smooth 2 mile section that I may have to do repeats on for my speedwork for Umstead.. 14 miles with about 1700 ft climbing (?- Garmin connect says 700, Sporttracks says 1800- definitely more than 700) in just under 2 hrs. Shorts and t-shirt weather.

Lunch- 3 days of high mileage, little sleep, and too little/crappy food caught up to me. Drove to Croft/Southside again for a nice trail run. 14 miles, though the last half was a slog with a few sitting spells. Still, trails are always nice- saw some deer, and just 6 people. Muddy thanks to 1.5 inches rain yesterday. 2:13, ~800 ft climbing. Bought Unbreakable (about 2010 Western States 100) and watched it last night with Marci. Awesome story. Marci couldn't believe I was making her watch it, but she was really into it by the end (especially since she didn't know who won).

AM- 6 ez, followed by 2 fun hours of ultimate frisbee, the first time I've played in 3 years. Good times. 10 total. I just did a new post on my blogger about the ultrarunning gear I use. A bit late for Christmas, but hopefully useful.

AM- Met Justin at Dupont state forest. 16.5 miles at a generally easy pace (2:50) with 2500 ft climbing. Perfect weather, especially at the finish with about 50 deg temps. Didn't see anyone for the first 2.5 hrs of the run, having the whole place to ourselves. The river crossing at mile 12 was exciting, too, as Justin **just-about** went into the drink on the very mossy rocks. I still don't know how he stayed up. Good run to finish up the year. This ends a strong year for me- I'll do a full wrap up later. This week is my 5th highest mileage this year, and I finish with 395 miles in December (2nd highest of the year- within spitting distance of 400, and 70 miles higher than my prev Dec record) and ran a total of 3769.75 miles for the year, beating my 2009 record by over 430 miles. That means I averaged more than 72 miles per week and basically ran from Key West, FL at the SE tip of the US all the way to Neah Bay, at the very NW corner of Washington State, plus running an extra 120 miles back.
