Place holder until I can upload.

H and the boys are down at Grammas for weekend birthday stuff so it's party time for me. BIG sleep (12 hours), then up and into the backcountry for some therapy.

Marion MTN - Peak Junction - Wellman's Divide - Strawberry Junction and back down Marion.

One stop for water on the PCT at Stone Creek. Wellman's flowing like crazy, Strawberry Cienega was dry. Gatorade and 2 rice cakes; zero fade, but a little low on water since I skipped Wellman's for Strawberry and started conserivng thinking I'd be short.

Marion is patchy snow/ice from about 1.5 miles in and all the way to the peak. Trail above Little Round is totally covered by snow - foot prints going in the right direction, but don't follow the trail precisely. I'm getting used to dead reckoning in those cases and not being so strict on following the trail bed.

First trip with the PB 3.0 pack - LOVE IT. Rocking the SPOT Gen 3 just in case, which was good since there were zero human tracks between Annie's Junction and Strawberry Junction. Plenty of coyote and big bobcat prints though.

Awesome day.

Aerobic on the treadmill at work. Walked 3 to warm up, then 3 x 10:2. Sarted at 7.2, then built to 7.5 aiming for MAP. Last set was 7.5 the entire way and just reaching 168 HR. Garmin died last set so HR data is incomplete.

Walked 5, then jogged 10 to warm up. Main set 5 x 1000 at 7 min pace on :60 recovery, had a 6th planned, but the legs were shelled. Walked 3, jogged 10, walked 2 to cool down. Solid work.

Aerobic from the house, through the county campground, down Idyllbrook, past the scout camp and out to Toll Gate. Then back.

Walked 3 to start, Z1-2 through the middle and then walked 2 to cool down.
