Nice little 6.4 running in circles between 27th and Rainbow. Funny how you can run for almost an hour, get in over 6 miles, and really go no where. There are so many trails spider webbing all over the boulder field that I probably only ran a mile of the total over the same trail. 775 vert. Mostly easy pace.

Oh, and I saw the butt sledder again. Kinda freaking me out, I see the guy every time I go out up there, no matter the day or the time. Butt sledder will be refered to from here on as "the ghost"

Ogden has an interesting collection of characters...such as the "ghost". It is a great place because of all that. That said it is a bit freaky.

Ya G, it is interesting around here. Sometimes I wonder how I fit into the cast of characters. Like a stand up comedian once said..."I took the bus up here tonight and they say there is always one weirdo on every bus....well, I couldn't find him" "ghost" probably has some jack A nickname for me too. Ha!

"Ghost", I like it. Were you running around the boulder field at the base of Malan's? Ogden has trails everywhere. It's pretty cool.

Oreo, Thanks! Ghost 'cause the guy is kinda freaky, I've said my most friendly hello everytime I pass him and all he does is stare at me, like right into your soul kinda stare. That and he just appears, not like I see him on some long out and back where he or I could be on the same trail for hours and just happen to pass, but a wierd intersections in the trail, where 10-15 seconds either way and I would have never seen him, wierd I'm telling you. I'm sure I'm starting to piss him off.
