Since I enjoyed my run to the Peak of Ben Lomand on Thursday I decided to do it again!!

Met up with Jon, Bryant, Ken, Riley, and Nate at the parking lot on the top of North Ogden Divide. Started a little after 5 A.M. About one mile into the run Nate ended up rolling his ankle so I hung back with him for a minute, he decided to head back down the mountain, just wasn't worth the risk. The guys waited for me to catch up, but didn't do any good for me. I am not the quickest up hill runner but steady. The guys dropped me like a bad habit!! Jon was a machine led the whole way. Got beat to the peak by 12 minutes. But felt pretty good on the way down. I got down in a little under 60 minutes. Solid fun run with the guys today. Good to get the whole gang together. I tell you what Ogden area has some pretty talented runners, it has fun to see everybody run and race so well.

Run time for me was 2 hours 28 minutes. I think officially about 10 minutes faster than Thursday.

Solid week of running for me. Another 65 plus mile week, so the base is coming back and just way stoked for the rest of the upcoming race season.
