Stupendous Pig trail miles with Oreo... only thing would have made it better is if a banjo had started playing by the trailer park.  Beautiful river actually and nice times after a fun morning skiing by my lonesome up at basin.  Seemed unusually crowded but enjoyed a nice swiss burger at Needles Lodge.

Squishy run on Pipeline. Totally soft snow trail which worked me over. Ran from church fork to overlook then down rattlesnake because i was sick of the snow and run up the canyon road to the car in my soaked shoes. Felt wasted but again a beautiful sunny late afternoon.

Big day for the old man out on Antelope island.  Went with Brother Oreo, Shane the Mountain Goat and T-Bone.  Ran the 16 mile loop with add on out to Elephant Head or Turtle Rock or whatever it was.  Beautiful moonscape scene out there.  Overall felt good until last 3-4 miles.  Felt about 300 pounds about then.  Saw Jun and Kelli cruising by on the trail...they appear to be studly runners just like you would guess.

Started cursing profusely about mile 15 or so.  Potty mouth gives me extra running motivation.  The great thing is that I know my body isn't really built for these long miles but I feel cool doing it anyway. Oreo is back...kicking my trash all over the place.  Fun day.
