Trail Running (Presi Travers) 12:53:33 [3] 18.5 mi (41:49 / mi) +2571m 29:13 / mi
Great hike with Greg from Randolph to Crawford Notch. Left Appalachia at 6:45 with early light on Valley Way to Watson Path -- probably a mistake as Watson Path is a jumble of big rocks cutting up to Madison. Then to Adams, Jefferson, around Clay (didn't make President) and on up Washington. A couple of hot dogs and soup at the top, then to Lakes and Mt Monroe. Trail was getting better, but nothing to really run. Skipped past Franklin, then Eisenhower (Mt Pleasant on my map) and Pierce (was Clinton, no Trump either). Dusk at this point and feeble headlamp down Crawford Path to trailhead.
Long, but fun day with steady movement and no real strain, couldn't run as trail is just not for that, and is mostly continuous rock hopping.
