Ten miles on the Pipeline Trail. Nice to be back on trails. I guess that is one benefit to no snow.

Thanks. Yes - I am doing the 50K version this year. How about you?

WaHoo!!! 50K. You're AWESOME!!!
I am still trying to decide. If I do, it will be the 25K. I'm worry about the elevation and terrain. It looks TOUGH!!!

It is very tough. And the hard part about the 50K is that you finish it once and have to start all over again. The 50 Miler is actually considered easier by many runners - because once you finish the 25k course, you have the hills pretty well done.
I'm using it as a training run for the Zion 50 Miler in May - although it would be nice if I could get in shape and PR the course.
