Wild Rose Trail. Beautiful day this morning. The trail was great for two miles, then got a bit choppy. It just doesn't get enough traffic higher up during the winter. There were more deer tracks on the trail than human tracks. I also saw one set of cougar tracks.

Nice run. Sorry to see you didn't get into Wasatch. Is there another 100 that you are going for?

Thanks Scott. I am tentatively looking at the Bear 100, but I might just run some shorter races and try for Wasatch again next year.

Congrats to you for getting in. If you need another pacer, I would be happy to help.

The Bear looks pretty awesome. Yeah, I might take you up on that (Pacer).
