Great run this morning, did the ELoop variation counterclockwise with no watch... felt good and tacked on the out and back Narm... came back to Btrail and saw Kel cresting the hill a few hundred yrds ahead so turned on the speed and caught her by the Ecorner and ran the loop with her... perfect morning of running and fun to run with Kel for a bit!

A Solid 9 miles today on the very hot and dry Wheelers/icebox/middle and then down Efork back down Wheelers... left at 2pm did not eat lunch, ran with a water bottle... felt fine going up but when I got to the top and started the descent I started feeling it big time, started rationing my water to a drink every mile, with 2 to go I ran out, kept pushing it pretty good in fact the last mile was the fastest at 7:45, i think... overall good to push it a bit, i was wasted when I finished! Kept the Moose sightings rolling, a mom and its baby about 25 yds away... funny I went 4 months with not seeing any and in less than a week I have seen 4...

Oh yea I also did some Pilates this morning, trying to work my Gluts more, feel like I have lost some muscle there since not biking as much...

Fun hike with Kel and Tanner... other boys were at the Reunion... went up to the yurt I hauled Tanner up most the way in the Kelty and that kid is solid... I was dripping with sweat when we got up to the yurt... hung out for a bit made some Ramen Noodles for Tanner and then headed back down... fun Evening!

Rode the Gondola up at Snowbasin with the boys around 4ish and got an idea to run up later that night and possibly spend the night around the top somewhere... first had a great hike with the boys, there are large boulder fields everywhere and they had a blast rockhoppin...

Left on my run around 9:30 from Wheelers ran up A.N. and across to East Fork, as I was starting up there I got a phone call from a good friend from Cali who was at Snowbasin(coincidentally)at a wedding, he drove down and we ended up chatting for an hour or so... he actually drove me up to the Snowbasin parking lot, I headed out from there again... and started on the trails  but because of all the MTn bike trail meandoring I decided to head straight up... and thats what I did all the way to the JP lodge, straight up the Womens DH which is a steep one, felt awesome, amazing Moonlight... at the top it got real windy so I got worried on where I was going to lay my head down for the night, as I only had a tarp and a very light weight fleece blanket... walked around the lodge with no luck they have some construction going on so the plastic was whipping around everywhere with the wind... walked over to the Olympic tram and to my luck the tram was sitting right at the bottom and the door was unlocked and there was a yellow pad that they use to wrap around the lift poles sitting inside... ended up being the perfect sleeping spot. Slept Ok, it was a very warm night, which helped... fun time and a good push up the steep hills!
