It was supposed to be a nasty mix of rain/snow this morning.  It never happened....yay.  I picked up Barry and Liza at 6:30am and we drove to the top of Buckskin.  It was 30 degrees but clear and calm.  The sun was just cresting the mountains and it was a beautiful morning.  I ran 18.43 miles with a couple tempos thrown in and then I would run back to the others.  It was a great morning....
