| Got rained on. Nasty crash on Tiger Summit jammed up Issaquah and all surrounding areas. Luckily I had the bike and zipped through all the mad drivers stuck in the cars - oh the joy of no handed on the hard shoulder drinking my water laughing at the "lazy folk". Nearly got cut up by a big truck crossing 2 lanes trying to miss the traffic jam, life flashed in front of me pretty quick there...
My car is still in Issaquah as I biked up the hill. |

| Lovely hike up McLennan Butte with Matt, Julie and AV. I had the "Rainier pack" on which was super heavy so hiked as fast as possible with poles on way up. Great views.
AV struggled a bit on the way down but fair play to the lad for knocking off his 1st big hike since the leg break. It will only get easier for him.
1:40 up ; 1:40 down wierd!
Comparison from 2005 when I ran with only water.

| West Lake. Very slooow today, legs tired. My legs also hurt from Tiger Mtn on Sunday. I ran the MAR for nearly 4 days with 60+K feet gain with no leg aches and I run Tiger (fast it must be said) and cease up - wierd... |

| Bombed along West lake at a rate of knots. Hit a hole and heard a really nasty crack, couldn't find anything so hoping it was just the saddle bag not frame, I was going 27 mph at the time. |

| Issaquah High school to Tiger #3. Legs felt like a bull today, I think I accidently peaked! Ran really hard up and down and felt fine both ways. Even had good speed on the flat. Must be the lay off recently.
Achilles giving a bit of gripe going up. |
