Lunch break run up Wire peak with Jun and Dorsimus. It was pretty warm at the trailhead, so I didn't bring a hat or gloves. We ran all the way to the ridge with Dorsimus leading the way. I took a short cut that is a bit steeper, but much shorter, so I was in front for a few minutes, but at the saddle I waited for the guys to catch up and Dorsimus took the lead the rest of the way. We pushed it pretty good and summitted in 48-something. It was colder on top and I wished I had a hat, but it wasn't bad.

The two guys with the spikes bombed it down the ridge and there was no way I could keep up. It was fun watching them fly. At the bottom Dorsimus had to take off and Jun and I added a few extra miles. The trail was a little muddy, but most of the mud could be avoided. It was a nice break in the day. For a few pics check out Jun's blog.

Fun lunch break....but do you have a shower at work? My hubby says there are guys in his office that shower in the janitors closet with a hose. Not my style!

Nice work Scott. Keep it up.

From Karen on Wed, Feb 09, 2011 at 23:20:48 from 69.171.160.36

Totally jealous! Great way to spend lunch. I can't shower in the janitor's closet anymore...

Toby- My parents live close to my office, so I can use their shower, but I have been known to use my Nalgene bottle for a quick shower :) Not ideal, but it works.

Bryce/Karen- Thanks! Yeah, this is the best way to spend my lunch break.

Nice. Do you not have spikes, or did you just forget them that day? They definitely come in handy for runs like that.

From Scott Wesemann on Thu, Feb 10, 2011 at 12:48:20 from 66.239.250.209

Hey Aaron, my buddy just picked some up for me last night. I need them.

From Lily on Thu, Feb 10, 2011 at 15:43:56 from 67.199.181.73

How does Wes Wesmann not have spikes but I do? hmmmm

You guys are fun when ya'll get out together. I hope we can have a Lake Mountain reuniting this June...with Jun. Hope my injury heals up by then.

From Scott Wesemann on Thu, Feb 10, 2011 at 15:58:27 from 66.239.250.209

Hey Lily, I am now the proud owner (as of about an hour ago) of some new spikes. I'll try them out on Lake Mt. tomorrow morning.

Yeah, we need to have a Lake reunion for sure.
