Did another out and back at Barton Creek this morning. I wish I knew how many times I've done this run. 100?, 200? I'm not sure how many but it's a bunch. It was like old home week this morning down there. Barry Beckman joined me and at the start Mark (Crash Triprock) Johnson was there a with a gal named Lindsey? We got going and came upon David Jacobson, Joe Prusaitis and 3rd person. We also saw John Kuss at around the 6 mile mark and stopped to talk to him for a few minutes. We leapfrogged Crash and his friend a couple times and they were at the HOL when we got there and he and I chatted.
On the way down the hill I asked Barry if he wanted to walk and he declined. When we got to the flat he ran a few times but was pretty much done with running with 6.5 to go. He told me to go ahead and I thought about for a little and decided to go. I needed to get done and get home and help Misty clean house, and I didn't want to string it out either. I also saw Ryan Beard along the way and we talked about his awesome WS100 finish and his pacing a couple of the top dogs at the RR100 in Feb. He is considering running it and I encouraged him.
I'm pretty happy with my time of 3:42 considering all the visiting I did.
Outstanding day on the trails......AGAIN!!!!
