Trail Work at Alta Today I was up at Alta doing trail work to satisfy the W100 work requirement to run. Very little sleep the night before so I was fatigued from the moment I got up and dressed. I prepared everything I would need to run up at Alta and Snowbird when I would finish the work assignment in the afternoon. However, as the hours dragged it became apparent I would not have the energy to do any kind of run after. Early in the day I bonked. So I took a gel. The torrential rain & thunder storm that ended our work day made it certain I would not be heading up to Mt. Baldy in the afternoon.
The group I was with built a new short section of trail did re-vegetation work on either side. It was funny to see all the runners show up in their trail running shoes. I was wearing mine. There was a woman there who is the female version of Karl Meltzer. The backward hat, sunglasses, Hokas. She looks like him too. Speedgoatress.
