Ran up Wasson Peak this morning. It was a nice morning to run it fairly cook at least for AZ. There was a nother runner out on the trail. I felt pretty good because I was able to pass him.

Did Wade road today. Wasn't feeling very good when I left and turned out there was a good reason. At the half way point had diarrhea barely got squatted behind a cactus off the side of the road before I exploded. Not a great experience need to start bringing TP of the runs.

Ran with John this AM. Wanted to do 2 trips up Wasson. I felt really pretty good the first time up and down. The second time up it was getting hot still not too bad but I think I was wiped out from my overnight shift 2 days ago and from not eating too well the day before i bonked pretty hard and had to hike even the easier parts the second time up. If it hadn't been for John i wouldn't have made it as far as I did. I had to turn back just before getting to the top because I was going to be late to go to the temple with my wife.

We ended up seeing 4 snakes on the run only 1 was a rattler.
