10 miles on the rims, which is our killer trail above town. Great trail, lots of fun to run the ups and downs and over sandstone and on a single track and ducking under tree branches. Great fun, beautiful albeit cold morning. 42F which is chilly even for us, and my hands are just now warming up. Wore gloves and arm warmers and that was fine on the run, but afterwards I was a bit chilled. Hopefully summer will hit at some point.

We've had a few mornings in the 40's, but upper. I can't believe it's still so cold in Billings. I'm getting pretty excited about the 24th.

Today is a bit of a fluke, 7 degrees below normal for the morning low. I'm looking forward to the 24th, just need to get this 50K speed bump out of the way then hopefully recover quickly and put in a few more good miles for Des News. The 24th is always on my mind, just like the Willie Nelson song. I'm excited to try out your BQ pacing skills, nunchuck skills. I hear you're pretty good with a bow staff.
