77 minutes
easy to moderate pace, but easy effort
11am - warm and sunny - ran the same loop as the last couple of weekends (from the base of Shanahan Ridge, over to Big Bluestem, down the Mesa to the Towhee, up Tohee to the mouth of Shadow Canyon, last-chance-back-to-the-Mesa-Trail, north on the Mesa Trail to North Shan, up to the Slab, down lower Fern Canyon Trail, Mesa back up to North Shan, North Shan down to the TH) - only a little slushy snow left over from our last little snow, but the big snow and ice fields from winter are now gone (a lot of mud is still hangin' around though) - today would have been a great day for a race because I felt unbelievably good - everything was effortless today, just zippin' up the hills like they were nothing - I saw more trail runners today than ever this year (must have seen 20 of 'em) - great run.
