Easy 6 on the trails. Can I complain about being sick of putting on my long sleeve running shirts and rain jacket every night to go run, and the mud, and the puddles, and the wet trees hanging in the trail.......good thing about it all is everybody else is sick of it too so I've got the place all to myself.

Legs felt like crrrap! blah.

My legs feel beat up too. Hey, I read your post from Saturday and that guy in jeans must be in really good shape. I have a map of all the trails in Weber County, but I really haven't gotten out and explored them yet. I did do one trail run last year up near Snow Basin on the Needles Trail. That was a lot of fun. I need to find the time and energy to go over and explore the trails.

Complain all you want, this weather is ridiculous.

Rain sucks. Hey what do you think of the Squaw course? You doing it?

Hey Dale, ya check'em out, there are miles of great trails around Weber C. The loops (east fork, middle fork, green pond, maples) below Snowbasin are awesome summer evening runs, nice and cool, lot's of shade. Let's hope for those days. The guy in jeans Saturday I think might be one of those guys with crazy natural strength and ability, hopefully he puts it to good use.

G- Most likely not going to run Squaw, I'm just about all healed up, and trying to race 50 miles won't help that at all. Not so phyched about the low course either.

Jun may have run those lower trails that Squaw will use. What do you think Jun are they any good? Hope campground, Rock Canyon to BST to Pole Canyon and back.
