5 miles up in the foothills before bed-time. Legs still pretty sore from WBR (8.5 mi decent from SnowBasin).

Ran Hobble Half course in the late evening with a good group of runners. Nice smooth downhill with some rollers in later miles. Beautiful evening up Hobble Creek. Several nice bucks in velvet milling around.

Late night after going back up for cars and getting home--all worth it!

HOT and S-L-O-O-O-O-W 8 miles during afternoon. Heat murdered me.

Same route as Thursday up through the Jordan River Narrows. Hotter but better prepared today. Brought water and dunked in river to cool down. 100 degrees during run. Faster and much better than previous day.

TIMP SUMMIT:

Started up around 7:15 pm. Just caught the sunset at the summit--amazing with the layer of smoke in the valley. Nice even effort on trip up--not really pushing it. Super windy cresting saddle before summit. Got a bit cold. It was good to get up and get back down out of the wind. Smooth steady decent in the dark without any issues. Caught up with fellow ultra runner Todd Cook and his daughter and tagged along with them on a leisure jaunt down the last 2-3 miles.

Most of the snow is gone. Crossed two small snow sections, one a bit dicey on trip down in the dark but no big deal. Shortcut two sections sliding down the snow fields--probably not the smartest thing but way fun.

Trip up: 2:15 Trip down: 1:25

Elevation: 5,017
