Early start with Cory, Matt and Cory's kids. Pretty easy trip up Malan's. 3-4 inches of snow on the trail at the top. Took the low trial to Strongs and upper BST back. Easy pace all the way through.

AM 9.5 miles 3000 vert

PM: Fast lap on Malan's right before dinner. Took my boy to an afternoon movie, so the gut was sloshing with a power blend of Diet Coke, Kit Kat, and movie popcorn. Yum. Hit it pretty hard though and made the top in 37 and the RT in 55 which is I'll take 'cause I'm still runn'en with the brakes on going downhill to keep the pressure off the ITB. Sun was out, leaves were blazing, snowy peaks were glowing, perfect!

4.4 miles 2250 vert, day, 14 miles. 5250. Week, 32 miles, 10,500.

Nice double Bryce. That is some sweet vert for the week. Your ITB must be feeling better. Reading about your BL trip yesterday makes me want to get up there. Let me know if you want to get up there again. I can do any weekday.

Your Wind Rivers video is sweet! Ughhh soooo beautiful.

Thanks Scott, ITB is getting better I think? the Ben Lomond trudge certainly didn't help things, a little tender now, but worth gettting Nic up there for the first time, sheesh!

Thanks Lulu, I am always surprised how breath taking that place is, and it's a perfect loop for day run to boot. Can't get much better. Wish I could take credit for the sweet video though, thanks to BJ and Jon for the fine cinematography and editing. Hope the hip is on the mend.

Oh and Scott, yes we need to get up there! Hope for a little indian summer, cuz it's trecherous right now. Need the first 5-6 miles to melt out a bit to make it a bit more pleasant.
