I ran the Pocatello 50 miler. It was actually 53.5 miles. It's a really tough race with 3 large climbs. Starting out, I couldn't seem to get my hydration right. Finally after 35 miles, things were feeling better. At the finish line, the were serving loaded bake potatoes. They tasted great after running that distance. Super fun day.

Ran the Mueller Park loop this morning with Matt V. and Leslie. The weather was perfect. We finished up just as it was getting warm. I just crossed the 100,000 ft mark of climbing for the year. Sweet.

Ran with Jacob and Jen up the course for the Steeplechase. We decided to tag Twin Peaks since they were close by. Coming off of Twin Peaks we ran saw someone with a beard coming up. He had no headlamp and no water. It was Matt V. Matt tagged twins and joined for the rest of the run. The trek across Black Mountain was fun, but it was freezing this morning. It even tried to snow on us. We wanted to go down Smuggler's Gap, but there was too much snow. So we came back down basically the same way we went up. I took a few shortcuts on the way down because I was in a hurry to get to work. It was an awesome mid week run.
