Trying to keep up with the big dogs.
Getting the easy climbing done early.

Gary and Steve's definition of "technical" trail running.
Where in the world is Steve? Do you see him?
You're kidding, right?
Guy we met on trail, cooling off.
Almost. Stopping to watch road race.
The leaders should be coming over that hill any minute.
Me, Steve, and Gary. They showed the rookies how it's done on this day.
Men's winner
Women's winner with new course record.
Jimmie looking strong.

Awesome run, Jimmie
Jimmie is gonna hike down, after his race up. Good Ultra training.
That is where we are heading down. Little did Christine and I know how painful it would be.
Northern Presi's
isolated pond where Gary and Steve waited for us. They ran down the rock wall, while we fell and ass scrambled down.
Mtn running gives you sexy legs. Christine's first time over 4k feet. Might as well make it the toughest in the north east.
Taking the shoes off to figure out why I could not run down hill for 4+ miles. pinky toe was same size as big toe.
