Lake Ranch Reservoir. John Nicholas Trail, all the way to the top. Strongest I've felt in several months. L started off really slowly; I ran ahead as we neared the lake, running 441 for the 3rd split, a good time these days even for the usual 4.0 run - and I felt like I could've run like that for most of the run. Did a 133 loopback at the far end of the lake, so the time for Nicholas Trail was 1:12:11, 1:22 faster than last time. Certainly can do this run several minutes faster. Was still full of run at the finish. Nice to feel good for a change.

The 14th split (:10) was just me stopping the watch. The 12th Garmin split includes a :10 loopback while L looked at the view. The 10th Garmin split includes a :05 stop to let a ranger on an ATV pass. I'll eliminate all of these in the splits below.

526(606)1132(521)1653(441)2134 (L was about 2200)
(133)2307 -- loopback
(744)3051 -- three trees
(351)3442 -- rock on bend **3758 -- "wrong" log I used last time
(615)4057 -- "correct" log
(1220)5317 -- intersection with private trail
(415)5732 --- bench by stone culvert
(928)10700 -- reentrant with car wreck in it
(505)11204 -- junction with Skyline Trail
(140)11344 -- Sunnyvale Mtn, pole before gate

Garmin got 5.01 but the trail is supposed to be 5.5 (plus I did a 1.5 min loop back) so I'm counting this as 5.65 miles.
