Personal:

The expectation of peace and safety on public land outweighs dog owners' rights. You don't have to have a dog, but you do have the right to free travel. The bigger responsibility falls on the dog owner.

Doesn't get any better than this... Decided to mix it up and went over to Wheelers trail head for an early morning run!! Headed up Wheelers and then middle fork trail to the green pond trail intersection - then green pond traverse over to Maples and down through Ice Box and Wheelers. Perfect morn ya'all. Vert 2583

Well.. sometimes you get wet and sometimes you get really wet... Jamie and I headed up Wheelers for a good evening run and about a quarter mile past the East Fork sign it started raining and then hailing and lightning and then wind...We decided to book it back down to the car.... Was pretty fun, but not the run I wanted to hit tonight!!

2nd Annual Focus Four!! This run is held in Memory of the four Focus employees that died in a plane crash while on a humanitarian mission in Guatemala 2 years ago. If you need a reason to go run Four miles - this is it. It looked like there were a couple hundred people there for the race and mile walk - not sure how many did the race - my guess is about 70-100 of them.

Wasn't sure how I would race - haven't done much Speed Work at all!! The course is 2 miles rolling with a good down and then 2 miles back up to the finish. The Wind was blowing the wrong direction (of course) so, we had a head wind for about 2/3+ of the race.

Shot out with the lead group - the winner took off didn't see him after the first half mile ( he finished in like 22 something ) The rest of the chase pack 2-6 runners stayed together for the next mile and a half then runner 6 dropped off  second place started pulling away and fourth place passed third at about mile 3.. I was closing on 4 place the last half mile, but ran out of pavement. Felt really good with the pace and finish. Legs felt light - sub 7 for the race so, I'll take it especially with the wind and hills...Peace out N.
