Crazy night and morning. Last night Tom and I ended up down at some friends house until close to midnight helping them unflood their basement. This morning at 4:10 we woke up to head up Payson Canyon for a 20 miler. Shoved 12 people in the Suburban along with coolers of water/Gatorade and spent the time dropping water along 4 spots The further we went the worse the weather became. It was just to risky to get out of the vehicle at the top. We were all bummed but came back down gathering all the coolers on the way down and came back home to bed. After about an hour or so of sleep we were all able to get out one way or another and get some miles. I was out of gas way from the beginning. I didn't know what I would be able to do. Luckily I was able to pull out 16. Not pretty, but 16 miles is 16 miles. I actually went up Harry's Hill twice. Then I ran into Tom and some others who almost had me talked into HH a third time. Luckily I got smart as we started and I turned around. I would not have made it without some nourishment which was a couple miles away even without going up and down again.
So I was hoping for 20, planned for 20, went out for 20, then thought I might get 0 or maybe 3 and ended with 16. That will have to be good enough.
