48 minutes
easy pace
5:40am - cool with some clouds around - same route as last night, but in reverse and without Yuri Pass - there were some clouds hangin' out today, especially on the eastern horizon - so instead of the sunrise being vivid and bright it was very colorful (pinks and oranges and magentas and yellows and reds and purples) but short-lived (all that color only lasted about ten minutes) - felt great this morning, but just went easy - lots of early morning traffic up there - saw 7 hikers and 6 runners, most of whom were with their dogs (where were these people a month or two ago in the ice and slop?) - this week I feel like I've stepped up to another level of fitness - want to do something long this weekend.
