Rachel Carson

Been talking about this for years now, nice to finally get the thing done.  Crazy that the city of Pittsburgh has a 37 mile trail that's mostly singletrack that cruises the north side of town.  Ran well, loved every minute of the day.  Predicted nine hours, ended up running 8:52.

Rest of the trip was fantastic, as Pittsburgh always is.  Saw some old friends, visited some old bars, hung out at Pitt for a while.  Always miss that place.




For the week:

run - 82 miles, 18 hours, 12k of climbing

hike - 31 miles, 14 hours, 2125 feet of climbing

Back home on Monday, eye surgery on Tuesday.  Hopefully my farsightedness gets much better after this.  No strenuous activity for a week.
